2006B5 A cylinder with a movable frictionless piston contains an ideal gas that is initially in state 1 at `1×105Pa`, 373 K , and `0.25m3`. The gas is taken through a reversible thermodynamic cycle as shown in the `PV` 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 `\_\_\_`
