A cylinder containing an ideal gas has a volume of 2.6 m3 and a pressure of 1.5 × 10^5 Pa at a temperature of 300 K. The cylinder is placed against a metal block that is maintained at 900 K and the gas expands as the pressure remains constant until the temperature of the gas reaches 900 K. The change in internal energy of the gas is +6.0 × 10^5 J. How much heat did the gas absorb?

a. 0
b. 3.4E+5 J
c. 6.0E+5 J
d. 1.4E+6 J
e. 7.8E+5 J
