Helium gas at 20 °C is confined within a rigid vessel. The gas is then heated until its pressure is doubled. What is the final temperature of the gas? HINT: You can treat helium as an ideal gas, and remember that to use the ideal gas law you need to use the Kelvin scale for temperature. 20 °C 313 °C 10 °C 586 °C 30 °C

A gas is in a container of volume V0 at pressure P0. It is being pumped out of the container by a piston pump. Each stroke of the piston removes a volume Vs through valve A and then pushes the air out through valve B as shown in Figure P19.74. Derive an expression that relates the pressure Pn of the remaining gas to the number of strokes n that have been applied to the container. FIGURE P19.74
