The gas cylinder in Figure Q19.10 is well insulated except for the bottom surface, which is in contact with a block of ice.
The piston can slide without friction. The initial gas temperature is

a. During the process that occurs until
the gas reaches a new equilibrium, are
(i) , (ii) W, and (iii) Q greater than, less than, or equal to zero? Explain.
b. Draw a pV diagram showing the process.
Suppose you take and hold a deep breath on a chilly day, inhaling 3.0 L of air at 0°C and 1 atm. a. How much heat must your body supply to warm the air to your internal body temperature of 37°C? b. By how much does the air’s volume increase as it warms?
A gas cylinder holds 0.10 mol of O2 at 150C and a pressure
of 3.0 atm. The gas expands adiabatically until the volume is doubled.
What are the final (a) pressure and (b) temperature?
How much work is done on the gas in the process shown in Figure EX19.2?

500 J of work must be done to compress a gas to half its initial volume at constant temperature. How much work must be done to compress the gas by a factor of 10, starting from its initial volume?
