vs. PTP is a straight line in the form of y = mx + c, where y , x PTP. The value of when PTP
becomes zero is the value of the temperature of the gas. This value is simply the value of intersection, c, in the formula of the straight line in the form of y = mx + c. From the formula of the straight line generated by Excell, the intersection of the straight line is c = 419.57 in the graph of vs. PTP . Hence, the temperature of the gas in the bulb is = 419.57 K.

Problem 3.2 (a) Show that the work done by an ideal gas during the quasi-static, isothermal expansion from an initial pressure Pi to a final pressure Pf, is given by W = nRT ln (Pf /Pi).
Solution:
For isothermal process, PiVi = PfVf. Hence Vi /Vf = Pf /Pi. Substitute this into W = -nRT ln (Vf /Vi ), we get W = -nRT ln (Pi /Pf )= nRT ln (Pf /Pi). Problem 3.3 An adiabatic chamber with rigid walls consists of two compartments, one containing a gas and the other evacuated; the partition between the two compartments is suddenly removed. Is the work done during an infinitesimal portion of this process (called an adiabatic expansion) equal PdV ? Answer: NO. Because there is no work done against the expansion of the gas-filled compartment by the evacuated compartment.
