Question: a refrigerator uses a polyatomic gas with Cp = 7 / 2 r as the working fluid in a four step cycle. first, a volume

a refrigerator uses a polyatomic gas with Cp=7/2r as the working fluid in a four step cycle. first, a volume of 0.3 m^3 at "-10c and 2 atm (state 1) is compressed adiabatically to one-fourth the original volume (state 2). Second, the gas is allowed to cool under constant pressure to room temperature, 25 C (state 3). At this point, the gas condenses into a liquid..
