Problem

3\,\text{g}

sample of helium (molar mass

4\,\text{g\,mol}^{-1}

) is initially at

27^{\circ}\text{C}

and

1.0\times10^{5}\,\text{Pa}

. It is compressed adiabatically until its pressure becomes

8.0\times10^{5}\,\text{Pa}

. Take

\gamma = \dfrac{5}{3}

for helium. What is the final volume of the gas? a)

4.2\,\text{L}

7.2\,\text{L}

5.4\,\text{L}

2.3\,\text{L}
