Testing the ideal gas law; 9.6 Speed distribution of particles; 9.7 Skills for analyzing processes using the ideal gas law

You have gas in a container with a movable piston. The walls of the container are thin enough so that its temperature stays the same as the temperature of the surrounding medium. You have baths of water of different temperatures, different objects that you can place on top of the piston, etc. (a) Describe how you could make the gas undergo an isothermal process so that the pressure inside increases by 10%, then undergo an isobaric process so that the new volume decreases by 20%, and finally undergo an isochoric process so that the temperature increases by 15%. (b) Represent all processes in P-versus-T, V-versus-T, and P-versus-V graphs. (c) What are the new pressure, volume, and temperature of the gas?
