2. An Otto cycle represents how an internal combustion engine works. The compression ratio of the Otto cycle shown is VA/VB = 8.00. At the beginning (state A) of the compression process, 500 cm3 of gas is at 100 kPa and 20.0oC. At the beginning of the adiabatic expansion, the temperature is TC = 750oC. Model this system as acting on a diatomic ideal gas. Fill in the following two tables
