A container of volume 1m^(3) is divided into two equal compartments by a partition. One of these compartments contains an ideal gas at 300 K . The other compartment is vacuum. The whole system is thermally isolated from its surroundings. The partition is removed and the gas expands to occupy the whole volume of the container. Its temperature now would be

ANSWER
According to the ideal gas law, PV = nRT, since there will be a change in volume of gas, this process will occur spontaneously i.e. isothermally.
(To compensate for the change in volume, there will be a corresponding change in the pressure of the gas, therefore the temperature will tend to remain constant.
