Problem

The piston initially divides the cylindrical vessel into two equal parts, in which there is an ideal gas of the same mass with the same temperature. Is it a real process in which, as the piston moves, the temperature of one part increases twice, and the other part decreases twice? The heat capacity of the piston and cylinder can be ignored, the system is isolated.
