Argon gas in an insulated plasma deposition chamber with a volume of 2 L is to be heated by an electric resistance heater. Initially, the gas, which can be treated as an ideal gas, is at 1.5 Pa and 300 K. The 1000-ohm heater draws current at 40 V for 5 minutes (i.e., 480 J of work is done by the surroundings). What are the final gas temperature and pressure at equilibrium? The mass of the heater is 12 g and its heat capacity is 0.35 J/(g)(K). Assume that the heat transfer to the chamber from gas at this low pressure and in the short time period is negligible
