A 6.0-cm-diameter cylinder of nitrogen gas has a 4.0-cm-thickmovable copper piston. The cylinder is oriented vertically, asshown in the figure, and the air above the piston is evacuated. When the gas temperature is 20 degrees Celsius, the piston floats20 cm above the bottom of the cylinder.
Questions

B) How may gas molecules are in the cylinder?
C) Then 2.0 joules of heat energy are transferred to the gas.what is the new equilibrium temperature of the gas?
D) What is the final height of the piston?
E) How much work is done on the gas as the piston rises?
