Question: Reconsidering Problem 3 in Homework # 1 . An monatomic ideal gas at 3 0 0 K has a volume of 1 5 liters at

Reconsidering Problem 3 in Homework #1. An monatomic ideal gas at 300K has a volume of 15 liters at a pressure of 15atm. The total amount of gas in the system is 9.14 mole.
Calculate the a-c when the gas undergoes following three separate paths:
i. A reversible isothermal expansion to a pressure of 10atm (to state 2: P2=10atm, V2=22.5 liters, T2=300K).
ii. A reversible adiabatic expansion to a pressure of 10 atm (to state 3: P3=10 atm, V3=19.13 liters, T3=255K).
iii. An irreversible adiabatic free expansion to final volume of 22.5 liters during which it performs 0J of work. (to state 2: P2=10atm, V2=22.5 liters, T2=300K).
a. The entropy change of the system Ssys.
b. The entropy change of its surroundings Ssurrounding.
c. The total entropy change of the universe Stotal.
R is gas constant: R=0.082057liter*atmK*mol=8.3144JK*mol. Integration: 1xdx=lnx+C;
