Do determine what process it is look at what stays constant. The use equation for ideal gas to find final temperature and number of moles

my values are; 860 degress C which I made 1113.15, Pressure 3atm, initial vol=300 and final =100 which i made 3*10^-4 and 1 *10^-4 respectively. Delta v i got -2*10^-6. For N i didN=PV/KT and that was 3*(-2*10^-6)/(1.38^-23) * (1113.15) and I got -4.05*10^14 which is wrong. what did i mess up?

For the initial temp do we do Tfinial-Tinitial = W/(3/2*N * K)? cause mines not working

how do you solve for the number of moles? I've tried using the ideal gas equation, but it doesn't seem to work.

You supposed to use ideal gas equation to solve for number of moles. Do you use SI units? For what point on the graph you are applying an equation?

do we just use 3 atm for the pressure or convert it to something

Yes, in appropriate units
