Which process will lead to the larger work output

Question

Problem

1. An ideal gas goes through an expansion process in which the volume doubles. Which process will lead to the larger work output: an isothermal process or a polytropic process with n = 1.25?

2. Water is heated from 100 kPa, 20^oC to 1000 kPa, 200^oC. In one case, pressure is raised at T = C; then T is raised at P = C. In a second case, the opposite order is used. Does that make a difference for ₁Q₂ and ₁W₂?

The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
