Two moles of an ideal gas cv-5/2 wascompressed adiabatically against constant pressure of 2atm. Which was initially at 350k and 1pressure.the work involve in the process is equal to how much

hello..just use the basics of thermodynamics for adiabatic processes..
keeping q=0

∆q=0 ,∆U=w. W=-pext(V2-V1) and U=ncvmdTEquating W and U u get final temperature as 450K. From there u can calculate work done and u get the answer as 500R

For reversible adiabatic process,

 
 
W=Pext[P2nRT2P1nRT1]              
 P2=Pext=2atm
 
P1=1atm                                              T1=300K
 
W=(2atm)[2atm2(R).T21atm2R(350)]
 
and W=2CV(T2350)=2×25R(T2350)
 
5R(T2350)=(750R2RT2)
 
5T21750=14002T2
 
7T2=3150                          T2=450K
 
W=2×CV(450350)
 
=2×25R×(100)=500R
