4.7 Exercise 40

Avg difficulty 2.5

A diatomic ideal gas is brought from an initial equilibrium state at p1=0.50atmp_{1} = 0.50 \text{atm} and T1=300KT_{1} = 300 \text{K} to a final stage with p2=0.20atmp_{2} = 0.20 \text{atm} and T1=500K.T_{1} = 500 \text{K} . Use the results of the previous problem to determine the entropy change per mole of the gas.
