Homework Statement
0.020 mol of a diatomic gas, with initial temp. of 20 C, are compressed from 1500 cm^3 to 500 cm^3 in a process in which pV^2=const.
a.) What is the final temp. in C?
b.) how much heat is added during this process?
Homework Equations
PV=nRT
The Attempt at a Solution
I've determined the final temperature to be 606 C, but can't find or think of what type of thermodynamic process, if any, pV^2=const. applies to.
I calculated the const.=~.07304 by setting pV^2=x and solving for x, but I'm not sure if that is even useful, and if it is, how it would be.
