A particular container holds 3.77 mol of neon gas. The volume of this container can be altered by sliding a piston in or out. The volume is changed from 8.60 L to 12.20 L while at the same time the temperature is changed from 303 K to 345 K. The molar heat capacity, Cym, for neon is 12.47 J/(mol · K). Assume that this value will not change over the given temperature range. What is the change in entropy for the gas? AS = J/K TOOLS x10 MacBook Pro
