Adiabatic Monotonic Ideal Gas Expansion
A 0.5 mol of an adiabatic monotonic ideal gas in a container at 250kPa and 350K is allowed to expand in either of the follow: a) reversibly or b) against a constant pressure of 150kPa until a final pressure of 150kPa is reached.
Please find the final temperature, delta U, delta H, q, and w for each process (a and b).

Solution Preview
First of all, we must assume that this gas is under going constant volume.
(a) Thus, for an ideal gas at constant volume ( in a container), we have the following:
(pfinal / pinitial) = (Tfinal / T initial)
Solving ...
Solution Summary
This solution finds the temperature and delta measures for when monotonic ideal gas either expands reversibly or against a constant pressure in a container.
