Now consider that the above sample of 12 g of Helium, at its final temperature 227^(@)C, C, is contained in a container X. Another container Y has also Helium at the same temperature and pressure as in container X but container Y has three times the volume of container X. Assuming that Helium in both containers behaves as an ideal gas, answer these questions. Internal energy of the gas in container Y will be -
