Thermodynamics
« on: April 23, 2015, 02:49:40 PM »
We just began the first law of thermodynamics and all the processes are somewhat confusing. What would be the way to approach a question like this:

An unknown quantity of argon gas at 1 atm and a temperature of 25 ° C is compressed against a constant pressure in a Isothermal process . The gas then spreads in an adiabtic process against constant pressure equal to the pressure of the gas , it then heats up to a final temperature . In these 3 processes described the gas exchanges 32 calories of heat ( in absolute value ) with the environment . find the total value of work that is exchanged between the gas and the environment

Would I be able to assume in such a question that there is one mole of gas?
