Air expands adiabatically (no heat in, no heat out) from T = 300 K and P = 100 atm to a final pressure of 1 atm. Treat the gas as ideal with g = 1.4, and determine the final temperature. Compare your result to the boiling points of nitrogen (77.4 K) and oxygen (90.2 K). Could this method result in the liquification of air?

Question 2

One mole of helium gas expands adiabatically from 2 atm pressure to 1 atm pressure. If the original temperature of the gas is 20C, what is the final temperature of the gas? (g = 1.67)
