One mole of an ideal gas with Cp = (7/2)R and Cy = (5/2)R expands from P₁ = 8 bar and T₁ = 600 K to P₂ = 1 bar by each of the following paths: (a) Constant volume; (b) Constant temperature; (c) Adiabatically. Assuming mechanical reversibility, calculate W, Q, AU, and AH for each process. Sketch each path on a single PV diagram.
