Answer

$T_f = 348.1 K$ or $75.1 ^o C$

Work Step by Step

When the pressure is constant, we can use the $W = pΔV = nRΔT$ equation. Now use the equation to solve for $T_f$ $W =nR(T_f-T_i)$ $\frac{W}{nR} + T_i =T_f$ $T_f = \frac{2400J }{(6) (8.314 J/mol.K)} + (27.0^o C + 273 K) $ $T_f = 348.1 K$ or $75.1 ^o C$
