Answer

$\frac{Q}{p_1V_1} = 7.50$

Work Step by Step

Step 2 : Constant pressure with volume from $V_1$ to $2.00V_1$ $Q = C_p\Delta T$ Where $C_p = \frac{5}{2} R$ $Q = \frac{5}{2} R\Delta T$ $Q = \frac{5}{2} R(T_2 - T_1)$ $Q = \frac{5}{2} R T_1 (\frac{T_2}{T_1} - 1)$ Note that $T_2/T_1 = 4$ $Q = \frac{5}{2} p_1V_1(4 - 1)$ $Q = \frac{15}{2} p_1V_1$ $\frac{Q}{p_1V_1} = \frac{15}{2}$ $\frac{Q}{p_1V_1} = 7.50$
