Is this process possible- if not what is the maximum


An inventor claims that 700. ft·lbf was used to compress 0.450 lbm of air isothermally in a closed piston-cylinder apparatus from 14.7 psia, 70.0°F to 2000. psia. Assuming ideal gas behavior,

a. Is this process possible?

b. If not, what is the maximum possible compression pressure that could be reached with this process?
