Question: A heat engine with 0 . 5 0 0 molmol of a monatomic ideal gas initially fills a 3 0 0 0 cm 3 cm

A heat engine with 0.500 molmol of a monatomic ideal gas initially fills a 3000 cm3cm3 cylinder at 800 KK. The gas goes through the following closed cycle:
- Isothermal expansion to 6000 cm3cm3.
- Isochoric cooling to 400 KK.
- Isothermal compression to 3000 cm3cm3.
- Isochoric heating to 800 KK.
