    1) An ideal gas with 0.5 moles is initially at 500 K and undergoes a process where its volume doubles. 2) The change in internal energy and work done for this step are calculated to be 0 kJ and -1.44 kJ respectively. 3) The final temperature is calculated to be 381.6 K using the ideal gas law and given volumes. 4) The efficiency of the process is calculated to be 24%. 5) Given the initial pressure was 50 atm, the final pressure is calculated to be 12.7 atm.
