Answer:


1.86\cdot 10^4 J

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume you mean
N_2, which is a diatomic gas.

For a diatomic gas, the internal energy is given by


U=(5)/(2)nRT

where

n is the number of moles

R is the gas constant

T is the absolute temperature

Here we have:

n = 3.00 mol


R=8.314 J/(mol K)


T=25^(\circ) +273=298 K

Substituting into the equation, we find the gas internal energy:


U=(5)/(2)(3.00)(8.314)(298)=1.86\cdot 10^4 J
