Displacement of the piston due to transfer of heat


Two equal-volume compartments of a box are joined by a thin wall as shown in the figure. The left compartment is filled with 0.050 mole of helium gas at 465 K, and the right compartment contains 0.025 mole of helium gas at 207 K. The right compartment also has a piston to which a force of 20.0 N is applied.

What will be the displacement of the piston due to this transfer or heat?

What fraction of the heat will be converted into work?
