Consider the following reversible process in order to calculate ¢S . The gas is first
heated reversibly from 320. to 650. K at a constant volume of 80.0 L. Subsequently, the
gas is reversibly expanded at a constant temperature of 650. K from a volume of 80.0 L
to a volume of 120.0 L. The entropy change for this process is obtained using the inte-
