Question: Problem 5 25 points ((Very important question) A 1.60 mol sample of argon gas (assume ideal behavior) is compressed from 300. K and 0.900 atm

Problem 5 25 points ((Very important question) A 1.60 mol sample of argon gas (assume ideal behavior) is compressed from 300. K and 0.900 atm to a final pressure of 2.70 atm. Calculate Ssys, w, q, and U if a) The compression is adiabatic and reversible. b) The compression is isothermal and reversible. c) Plot the processes in a) and b) on a P-V diagram. (You need to plot both processes on ONE diagram in order to provide a comparison between them.)
