What would be the volume of 3.90 moles of an ideal gas, at STP? What is the pressure of this gas, if the temperature was increased from 0 degC to 56.9 degC as it stays in a constant volume container?
Suppose you have 0.53 moles of an ideal gas. What is the average kinetic energy of that gas (in units of kJ) if the temperature of the gas is 280.2K? Note: It is understood that the unit of your answer is some number of kilo-Joules, however do not explicitly include units in your answer. Enter only a number. If you do enter a unit ("kJ" in this case), you answer will be counted wrong.

The ideal gas law relates the pressure P, volume V, and temperature T of an ideal gas: PV = nRT where n is the number of moles and R = 8.3145 J/(K mol). Plots of pressure versus volume at constant temperature are called isotherms. Plot the isotherms for one mole of an ideal gas for volume ranging from 1 to 10 m', at tempera- tures of T = 100, 200, 300, and 400 K (four curves in one plot). Label the axes and display a legend. The units for pressure are Pa. n=1
