A monatomic ideal gas of two moles is taken through a cyclic process starting for \mathrm{A} as shown in the figure. The volume ratios are \mathrm{\left(V_B / V_A\right)=2 \: and \: \left(V_D / V_A\right)=4}. If the Temperature \mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{A}} at \mathrm{A}\: \text{is}\: 27^{\circ} \mathrm{C}. The total work done by the gas during the complete cyc Is:

Taking \mathrm{V_A=V_0;} \mathrm{ V_B=2 V_0 ; V_D=4 V_0 }

Process \mathrm{ A \rightarrow B } : Isobaric process

as \mathrm{ \mathrm{V} / \mathrm{T}= } constant

\mathrm{ \mathrm{V}_0 /(273+27)=\left(2 \mathrm{~V}_0\right) / \mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{B}} }

\mathrm{ \Rightarrow \mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{B}}=600 \mathrm{~K}=327^{\circ} \mathrm{C}. }

\mathrm{ Q_1=n C_P \Delta T=2(5 / 2) R(600-300) }

\mathrm{ =1500 \mathrm{R} (absorbed) }

Process \mathrm{ B \rightarrow C } (Isothermal)

\mathrm{ Q_2=W_2=n R T_B \ln \left(V_2 / V_1\right) }

\mathrm{ =831.78 \mathrm{R} (absorbed) }

Process \mathrm{ C \rightarrow D } (Isochoric)

\mathrm{ Q_3=n C_V \Delta T=-900 R } (released)

Process \mathrm{ D \rightarrow A } ( Isothermal)

\mathrm{ Q_4=W_4=n R T_A \ln \left(V_2 /V_1\right)=-831.78 R }

Total work done: \mathrm{ W=Q_1+Q_2+Q_3+Q_4=600 R. }
