Q.3 (a) Write in Brief about Maxwell relation. State the importance of it? 07
(b) An ideal gas with Cv = 1.5R undergoes the following mechanically reversible
changes in a series of non-flow processes as given below:
a) From an initial state of 70 ?C and 1 bar, it is compressed adiabatically to
150 ?C.
b) It is then cooled from 150 ?C to 70 ?C at a constant pressure.
c) Finally the gas is expanded isothermally to its original state.
