I'll hand this out in class, but here is the worksheet digitally.

I recommend doing the work on your own paper so you have enough space.

Answers:

1. isobaric

2. isochoric

3. -3.5 kJ (or 3500J by the gas)

4. 6 kJ (or 6000J on the gas by the surroundings or -6000J by the gas)

5. 12.5 kJ (or 12500J by surroundings)

6. 300.8 K

7. 60.2 K

8. 5998 J

9. 5998 J

10. 0 J

11. 3500 J by gas, so -3500 J by surroundings

12. 12500 J by gas, so -12500 J by surroundings

13. skip

14. isobaric

15. isochoric

16. problem should read from A to C to B to A. Answer 12000J, or -12000 J by the gas

17. skip

18. 300.8 K

19. -24000 J

20. 6000 J

21. 18000 J
