An insulated cylinder closed at one end by a frictionless


An insulated cylinder closed at one end by a frictionless piston contains 20g of hydrogen gas at 30 degrees Celsius. This is heated to 40 degrees Celsius with the pressure kept constant at 1 bar and the volume increases by 7*10^-4 m^3. (The specific heat of H2 at constant pressure is 1.4*10^4 JKg^-1 K^-1).

a) What is the work done by the gas?

b) What is the change in internal energy of the system?
