Question: Assume ideal gas behavior, and compute the reversible work required to compress a natural gas mixture from 1 0 to 6 0 psig ( 0

Assume ideal gas behavior, and compute the reversible work required to compress a natural
gas mixture from 10 to 60 psig (0.694.1 barg), both isothermally and adiabatically, with an
initial temperature of 80\deg F (26.7\deg C). Also, calculate the exit temperature for adiabatic
compression. The molar mass of the gas is 18, and the ratio of heat capacities is 1.15.
Assume the compressor is 100% efficient for this calculation.
