Through an isentropic process, a piston compresses 2 kg of an ideal gas at 150 kPa and 35C in a cylinder to a pressure of 300 kPa. The specific heat of the gas for constant pressure processes is 5 kJ/kg-K; for constant volume processes, the specific heat is 3 kJ/kg-K. What is the final temperature of the gas in degreeCelsius?
