A sealed container holds 0.020 moles of ideal nitrogen (N2) gas at a pressure of 1.5 atmospheres and a temperature of 290 K. The atomic mass of nitrogen is 14.0 g/mol.

a. What is the approximate translational kinetic energy of a nitrogen molecule, in SI units?

b. What is the approximate quantity of heat, transferred at constant volume, that raises the temperature of the gas to 300 K, in SI units?a.
