The concept used to solve this problem is first law of thermodynamics.
First use the relation between pressure, final volume, and initial volume to calculate the work done by the gas.
Finally use the first law of thermodynamics to calculate heat flow into or out of the gas and the direction of heat flow.
First law of thermodynamics states that the change in internal energy of a system is equal to the heat added to the system minus the work done by the system.
Here, is the decrease in internal energy, is the heat out of the gas, and is the work done by the gas.
Rearrange the above equation to get heat out of the gas,
Expression for the work done by the gas is,
Here, P is the pressure, is the final volume, and is the initial volume.
Expression for the ideal gas law is,
Here, V is the volume, n is the number of moles, R is the gas constant, and T is the temperature.
(a)
Expression for the work done by the gas is,
Substitute for , for , and for .
(b)
Expression for heat out of the gas is,
Substitute for and for
The heat flow has negative sign, so the heat flow is out of the gas.
(c)
Ideal gas equation not required to calculate the work done by the gas and heat flow. Ideal gas is not used either directly or indirectly.
Hence, it does not matter whether the gas is ideal or not.
Ans: Part aThe work done by the gas is .
Part bThe absolute value of Q is and the direction of heat flow is out of the gas.
Part cIt does not matter whether the gas is ideal or not.
