Problem

One mole of an ideal gas (Cp=5R/2C_p = 5R/2) in a closed cylindrical piston is expanded from Ti=300T_i = 300 K, Pi=0.5P_i = 0.5 MPa to Pf=0.1P_f = 0.1 MPa by an adiabatic pathway. The energy supplied to the system ΔQ, change in internal energy ΔU, and work done by the gas ΔW are: a) ΔU = 0 J, ΔQ = 4014 J, ΔW = -4014 J b) ΔU = -4270 J, ΔQ = 0 J, ΔW = 4270 J c) ΔU = 4270 J, ΔQ = 0 J, ΔW = -4270 J d) ΔU = -5487 J, ΔQ = 0 J, ΔW = -5487 J e) ΔU = -5487 J, ΔQ = -5487 J, ΔW = 0 J
