Consider 2.00 moles of an ideal gas that is taken from

Chapter 9, Problem 9.22

(choose chapter or problem)

Consider 2.00 moles of an ideal gas that is taken from state A (PA 5 2.00 atm, VA 5 10.0 L) to state B (PB 5 1.00 atm, VB 5 30.0 L) by two different pathways. VC 5 30.0 L 1 PC 5 2.00 atm 2 State A State B VA 5 10.0 L VB 5 30.0 L PA 5 2.00 atm 3 4 PB 5 1.00 atm VD 5 10.0 L PD 5 1.00 atm These pathways are summarized in the following graph of P versus V: P (atm) 0 V (L) A B 1 C D 4 3 2 1 2 10 20 30 Calculate the work (in units of J) associated with the two pathways. Is work a state function? Explain
