Problem

A gas in a closed container undergoes two successive steps. First, 150 J150\,\mathrm{J} of heat is supplied while the volume remains constant. Next, the gas does 80 J80\,\mathrm{J} of work on its surroundings while an additional 40 J40\,\mathrm{J} of heat is added. Calculate the net change in internal energy for the entire two-step process.
