Answer to Question #143743 in Physics for Dalia G

Question

Consider the system shown below: 1 liter of ideal gas contained inside a chamber with a movable piston acting as one wall. Imagine that the chamber is immersed in air at atmospheric pressure since the whole apparatus is located at sea level.

a) At first the piston is free to slide without friction, and the ideal gas contained within is in thermal equilibrium with the air outside. The air begins at room temperature of 293 K, but then cools over night to 283 K and the ideal gas comes into thermal equilibrium with it. What physical property of the ideal gas (pressure, volume, temperature, etc.) is held fixed over this process? What are the temperature, pressure, and volume of the ideal gas after it cools? What is the change in internal energy of the gas over this process? What is the work done by the gas throughout this process? What is the heat transferred into the gas over this process?
