Question: During the compression stroke of a certain gasoline engine, the pressure increases from 1 . 0 0 atm to 2 0 . 0 atm. If

During the compression stroke of a certain gasoline engine, the pressure increases from 1.00 atm to 20.0 atm. If
the process is adiabatic and the air-fuel mixture behaves as a diatomic ideal gas, (a) by what factor does the
volume change and (b) by what factor does the temperature change? Assuming the compression starts with
0.0160 mol of gas at 27.oC, find the values of (c) Q,(d)Eint, and (e) W that characterize the process.
(e) Since Q=0, W is just Eint or 135 J.
