A vessel contains an ideal gas at pressure 150 kPa. When the gas is heated it expands at constant pressure until the temperature increases by 100 K. The amount of heat absorbed by the gas is 4.36 kJ. However, if the gas at its initial condition is heated at constant volume until the temperature increases by 100 K, the amount of heat absorbed is 3.11 kJ. Determine (a) the value of y, (b) the work done by the gas when it expands at constant pressure, (c) the change in volume of the gas when the gas is heated at constant pressure and the temperature rises by 100 K.
