  2. When the red stops are removed, the ideal gases expand, and the pistons move until they hit the black stoppers. Each system is adiabatic. Which system has the most lost work? A B C Same for all systems Vacuum Vacuum Vacuum A C B 2 kg 1 kg Gas Gas Gas
  3. In these piston-cylinder systems, when the red stop is removed, the ideal gas expands, and the piston moves until it hits the black stopper. Each system is adiabatic and starts at 10 atm and 25°C. Which has the highest final temperature? A B C All the same Vacuum Vacuum Vacuum A C B 2 kg 1 kg Block Piston Gas Gas Gas
  4. A pile of sand sits on a piston and the weight of the sand keeps the gas compressed in the cylinder. Which method to remove the sand expands the gas most reversibly? All at once. One grain at a time. ¼th of the sand per minute. Same for all methods Sand Piston Gas

  12. A gas goes from state A to state B in a reversible adiabatic process. It then goes from B back to A by a different pathway that is irreversible and adiabatic so that the entropy change of the gas is zero. Is this possible? Yes No Cannot tell A P Irrev. B V Rev.
