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) 125 K B) 250 K C) 157 K D) 180 K E) 100 K
