A bottle of volume V = 0.15 m³ contains helium gas (a monatomic gas) at a pressure p = 722,266 Pa (Pascal = N/m² and temperature T = 300 K.
Calculate a numerical value for the internal energy U of this gas.
Include units in your answer, using Sl units (m for meters, kg for kilograms, s for seconds, J for joules, K for kelvin, etc.).
Write your answer as an exponential as described in the instructions.
1.50 moles of a monatomic ideal gas goes isothermally from state 1 to state 2. P1 = 2.8×105 Pa, V1 = 88 m3, and P2 = 6.6×105 Pa. What is the volume in state 2, in m3?
Your answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.
A monatomic ideal gas undergoes an isothermal expansion at 300 K, as the
volume increased from 0.020 to [2*v1] m³.The final pressure is 120.61kPa. The
