Question: An ideal gas undergoes an adiabatic compression from p = 1.0 atm, V = 1.0 x 106L, T = 0.0oC to p = 1.0 x

An ideal gas undergoes an adiabatic compression from p = 1.0 atm, V = 1.0 x 106L, T = 0.0oC to p = 1.0 x 105 atm, V = l0 x 103 L.

(a) Is the gas monatomic, diatomic, or polyatomic?

(b) What is its final temperature?

(c) How many moles of gas are present? What is the total translational kinetic energy per mole?

(d) Before and

(e) After the compression?

(f) What is the ratio of the squares of the rms speeds before and after the compression?
