Determine the engines efficiency in percents defined as the


A reversible engine contains 0.350 mol of ideal monatomic gas, initially at 586 K and confined to a volume of 2.42 L . The gas undergoes the following cycle:

  • Isothermal expansion to 4.64 L
  • Constant-volume cooling to 282 K
  • Isothermal compression to 2.42 L
  • Constant-volume heating back to 586 K

Determine the engine's efficiency in percents, defined as the ratio of the work done to the heat absorbed during the cycle.
