PV=nRT=cst*T; so P1/V1=P2/V2=nR/V 2 x 2 3V V  =3RT/M  Q = nCV T for constant-volume processes  Q = nCP T for constant-pressure processes  Eint = nC vT  ,f is number of degrees  At about room temperature,the value increases to CV=5/2 R (diatomic) (rotational energy but not vibrational energy)  At high temperatures, the value increases to CV = 7/2 R(vibrational energy as well as rotational and translational) (PV)i=(PV)f
