Learning Goal:To understand the meaning and the basic applications of PVdiagrams for an ideal gas.As you know, the parameters of an ideal gas are described bythe equationPV = nRT,where p is the pressure of the gas, V is the volume of thegas, n is the number of moles, R is the universal gasconstant, and T is the absolute temperature of the gas. Itfollows that, for a portion of an ideal gas,One can see that, if the amount of gas remains constant, it isimpossible to change just one parameter of the gas: At leastone more parameter would also change. For instance, if thepressure of the gas is changed, we can be sure that either thevolume or the temperature of the gas (or, maybe, both!) wouldalso change.To explore these changes, it is often convenient to draw agraph showing one parameter as a function of the other.Although there are many choices of axes, the most commonone is a plot of pressure as a function of volume: a pVdiagram.FigurepVTIn this problem, you will be asked a series of questionsrelated to different processes shown on a pV diagram (Figure1). They will help you become familiar with such diagramsand to understand what information may be obtained fromthem.3po2po= constant.Po5:46:Vo 2V 3V1 of 1Review | ConstantsOne important use for pV diagrams is in calculating work. The product pV has the units of Pa × m³ = (N/m²) · m³ ==N·m = J; in fact, theabsolute value of the work done by the gas (or on the gas) during any process equals the area under the graph corresponding to that process on the pVdiagram. If the gas increases in volume, it does positive work; if the volume decreases, the gas does negative work (or, in other words, work is beingdone on the gas). If the volume does not change, the work done is zero.The following questions may seem repetitive; however, they will provide practice.

Given, The parameters of an ideal gas is described by pV = nRT. Part A, During process 1→2, Pressure is constant 3p0. Volume is changed from V0 to 3 V0.So, change in volume = 3V0-V0 = 2V0 Work done = pressure×change in volume = 3p0(2V0) = 6p0V0
