Question: Air is compressed in an internally reversible process from p 1 = 0 . 3 9 6 9 bar and T 1 = 2 4

Air is compressed in an internally reversible process from p1=0.3969 bar and T1=240K to a final pressure of p2=20 bar and behaves as an ideal gas.
Determine all properties of the initial and final states (T,p,v,h, and u), calculate the change in entropy and the work of the process per unit mass, and sketch the process in the T-s and p-v diagrams assuming the ideal gas behavior in the following case.Adiabatic compression in an ideal compressor (one inlet and one outlet)
Bonus (extra points) question: Verify that ideal gas model is applicable in the most challenging state among the considered ones.
