A cylinder contains oxygen gas O2 at a pressure of2.20 atm. The volume is 6.00 L, and thetemperature is 300 K. Assume that the oxygen may betreated as an ideal gas. The oxygen is carried through thefollowing processes:
(1) Heated at constant pressure from the initial state (state 1) tostate 2, which has 460 K.
(2) Cooled at constant volume to 250 K (state3).
(3) Compressed at constant temperature to a volume of6.00 L (state 4).
(4) Heated at constant volume to 300 K, which takesthe system back to state 1.

Calculate Q for each of the four processes (in J). Theprocesses are Q1->2, Q2->3, Q3->4, Q 4->1.
Calculate W for each of the four processes (in J).
Calculate the net work done by the oxygen (in J).
What is the efficiency of this device as a heat engine (inJ)?
