Answer

(a) $T_1=122K;T_2=366K$ (b) Isobaric (c) $3atm$

Work Step by Step

(a) We know that $T_1=\frac{p_1V_1}{nR}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $T_1=\frac{(101300)(0.001)}{(0.1)(8.31)}$ This simplifies to: $T_1=122K$ Now $T_2=3T_1$ $\implies T_2=3(122)=366K$ (b) We know that the pressure is constant during the process, therefore, the process is isobaric. (c) We know that $p_3=\frac{V_2}{V_1}p_2$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $p_3=\frac{3000}{1000}(1)$ $\implies p_3=3atm$
