A sample of 1.50 moles of an ideal gas is initially at a temperature of 20.0°C and a pressure of 1.50 atm is compressed isothermally and quasi-statically until its pressure is 2.50 atm. (a) What are the initial and final volumes of the ideal gas? (b) What is the work done on the gas during the compression? (c) What is the heat added to (or removed from) the gas during the process? State whether the heat was added or removed. (d) Indicate this process on a PV diagram. Given that 1 atm = 1.013 x 105 Pa and 1000 L = 1 m³.
