One mole of carbon dioxide is to be compressed adiabatically from 1 bar and 25 C

Question:

One mole of carbon dioxide is to be compressed adiabatically from 1 bar and 25C to 10 bar. Because of irreversibilities and poor design of the compressor, the compressor work required is found to be 25 percent greater than that for a well-designed (reversible) compressor. Compute the outlet temperature of the carbon dioxide and the work that must be supplied to the compressor for both the reversible and irreversible compressors for the two cases below.

a. Carbon dioxide is an ideal gas with a constantpressure heat capacity of 37.151 J/(mol K). 

b. Carbon dioxide is an ideal gas with the constantpressure heat capacity given in Appendix A.II.
