Problem

One mole of a monatomic ideal gas undergoes an adiabatic expansion in which its volume becomes eight times its initial value. If the initial temperature of the gas is 100 K100 \text{ K} and the universal gas constant R=8.0 J mol−1 K−1R = 8.0 \text{ J mol}^{-1} \text{ K}^{-1} , the decrease in its internal energy, in Joule, is ____.
