Question: Air ( 1 . 0 bar, 2 9 8 . 1 5 K ) is being compressed into 5 . 5 bar, 3 2 0

Air (1.0 bar, 298.15 K) is being compressed into 5.5 bar, 320.15 K by two reversible, mechanical processes:
(a) Constant pressure compression followed by heating at constant volume;
(b) heating at fixed volume followed by cooling at constant pressure.
Calculate heat, work, U, and H of each process.
Assume that air is an ideal gas with Cp =28.10 J mol-1K-1 and molar volume of 0.02479 m3 mol-1(298.15 K,1.0 bar).
