- Due to the presence everywhere of the cosmic background radiation, the minimum possible temperature of a gas in interstellar or intergalactic space is not 0 K but 2.7 K. This implies that a significant fraction of the molecules in space that can be in a lowlevel excited state may, in fact, be so. Subsequent de-excitation would lead to the emission of radiation that could be detected. Consider a (hypothetical) molecule with just one possible excited state.

If all of this energy is converted to thermal energy in the gas, what is its temperature increase (in K), assuming 55.0 cm3 of ideal gas at 0.300 atm pressure? (The small answer is consistent with the fact that the energy is large on a quantum mechanical scale but small on a macroscopic scale. Assume the initial temperature of the gas is 293 K.)arrow_forward
