The gas is taken through a reversible thermodynamic cycle as shown in the `PVP V` diagram above. a. Calculate the temperature of the gas when it is in the following states. i. State 2 ii. State 3 b. Calculate the net work done on the gas during the cycle. c. Was heat added to or removed from the gas during the cycle? Added `\_\_\_` Removed `\_\_\_` Neither added nor removed `\_\_\_` Justify your answer.
