An insulated cylinder with a frictionless piston contains 10 L of CO2 at ambient conditions, 100 kPa

Question:

An insulated cylinder with a frictionless piston contains 10 L of CO2 at ambient conditions, 100 kPa and 20oC. A force is now applied on the piston, compressing the gas until it reaches a set of stops, at which point the cylinder volume is 1 L. The insulation is now removed from the walls, and the gas cools down to the ambient temperature of 20oC. Calculate the
(a) Work.
(b) Heat transfer for the overall process. Also, show the process on a T-s diagram. Use the PG model.
