Explanation / Answer

Since gas is ideal we can use ideal gas equation PV = nRT (where R = 8.314 J/mol-k )

At point 1    P1 = 100KPa   and V1 = 0.1 m3 and n = 5

Subsituting in above equation we get   P1 * V1 = nRT1  

100*103 * 0.1 = 5 * 8.314 * T1   => T1 = 240.6 K

At point 3    P3 = 50KPa   and V1 = 0.3 m3 and n = 5

Subsituting in above equation we get   P3 * V3 = nRT3

50*103 * 0.3 = 5 * 8.314 * T3 => T3 = 360.8 K
