1.50 moles of a monatomic ideal gas goes isothermally from state 1 to state 2. P1 = 2.4×105 Pa, V1 = 64 m3, and P2 = 7.4×105 Pa. What is the volume in state 2, in m3?
An ideal gas expands from state (p1, V1) to state
(p2, V2) with p2=2p1 and V2=2V1. The expansion is
described by p=p1[1+(V-V1)2/V21] in the pV
diagram.
