Using 1st and 2nd law of thermodynamics for irreversible expansion of Krypton:

Krypton (ideal monatomic gas) is confined in one-fourth of a 48-litre container. The other part of the container is evacuated. When the partition is removed, the gas expands and fills the whole container, while the system loses 400J of heat to the environment at 290K. It is found that in the final state, the Krypton is at p2 = 5.5bar, T2 = 400K. Is this process possible or not? (?k?????? = 83.8 kg/kmol)
