Chemistry

A Carnot cycle uses 1.00 mol of a monoatomic perfect gas as theworking substance from an initial state of 10.0 atm and 600 K. Itexpands isothermally to a pressure of 1.00 atm (step 1), and thenadiabatically to a temperature of 300 K, (step 2). This expansionis followed by an isothermal compression (step 3), and then anadiabatic compression (step 4) back to the initial state. Determinethe values of q, w, ÄU, ÄH, ÄS, and ÄSsurr for each step in thecycle and the cycle as a whole. (Express your answer as a table ofvalues). Calculate the efficiency of an energy that uses thiscycle. Actually, do this calculation two different ways and see ifthey agree with each other.
