Air is compressed from 1 bar, 25 C to 50 bar, and subsequently is cooled to 300

Question:

Air is compressed from 1 bar, 25 °C to 50 bar, and subsequently is cooled to 300 K using cooling water. Assuming air to be an ideal-gas mixture and the compressor to be 100% efficient, calculate the work in the compressor and the heat removed in the heat exchanger per mol of air. Assume air to be ideal-gas mixture (79% N2, 21% O2) and use the heat capacities given in Perry’s Handbook.
