Answer

$\Delta K = 450~cal$

Work Step by Step

We can find the change $\Delta K$ in the total translational kinetic energy: $\Delta K = 1.5~k~\Delta T~N$ $\Delta K = (1.5)~(1.38\times 10^{-23}~J/K)~(50.0~K)~(3.00~mol)(6.02\times 10^{23}~mol^{-1})$ $\Delta K = 1869~J$ $\Delta K = (1869~J)(\frac{1~cal}{4.184~J})$ $\Delta K = 450~cal$
