Answer

(a) $975K$ (b) $4atm$ (c) $5\times 10^{-4}m^3$

Work Step by Step

(a) We can find $T_1$ as follows: $T_1=\frac{p_1V_1}{nR}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $T_1=\frac{1(101300)(1\times 10^{-4})}{(0.005)(8.31)}$ $T_1=975K$ (b) We know that $p_2=\frac{nRT_2}{V_2}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $p_2=\frac{(0.005)(8.31)(2926)}{3\times 10^{-4}}$ This simplifies to: $p_2=405251pa=4atm$ (c) We can find the volume $V_3$ as follows: $V_3=\frac{nRT_3}{p_3}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $V_3=\frac{(0.005)(8.31)(2438)}{2(101300)}$ $V_3=5\times 10^{-4}m^3$
