One Kilogram of steam is contained in a piston/cylinder device at 800 kPa and 200°C. (a) If it undergoes a mechanically reversible, isothermal expansion to 150 kPa, how much heat does it absorb? (b) If it undergoes a reversible, adiabatic expansion to 150 kPa, what is its final tem- perature and how much work is done?
