Hardest Thermodynamics Questions

Can someone help me with this question

100kg of methane is compressed from 0.5MPa and 300k to 3.0 MPa and 500K in a closed chamber by a compressor. The compression process is assumed to be adiabatic, calculate the efficiency of this compressor. Specific heat capacity of methane under constant pressure is 35.58 kJ/kmol.K and ideal has constant is 8.314 kJ/kmol.K

It will be great if anyone can help me tackle this question!!!!!!

Hi,

Welcome to TSR. :smile:
If you are new, it may be good that you attempt to help the recent threads instead of answering a thread that was about 5 years old.
Hi Gingerbread101,
