During an adiabatic process, 20 moles of a monatomic ideal gas undergo a temperature change from 450 K to 320 K starting from an initial pressure is 400 kPa. The ideal gas constant is R = 8.314 J/mol K.
(a) What is the final volume of the gas?
(b) How much heat does the gas exchange during this process?
(c) What is the change in the internal (thermal) energy of the gas during this process?
