First Law of Thermodynamics: A 40.0-L container is divided into two equal parts by a rubber membrane. One half of the container has 1.50 moles of an ideal monatomic gas at 250 K, and the other half is a vacuum. The container is well insulated, so there is no exchange of heat with the surroundings. The membrane breaks, and eventually the gas reaches a new equilibrium condition occupying the entire volume. What is the final temperature of the gas?

A. 100 K B. 125 K C. 157 K D. 180 K E. 250 K
