A piston in an engine is designed to have a maximum volume of 0.885 L when fully expanded and a minimum volume of 0.075 L when fully depressed. If the gas causes the piston to exceed its maximum volume, it will fail. In a testing situation, a hydrocarbon gas is combusted while the piston is depressed, causing the internal temperature to increase very rapidly from 171°C to 5934°C. Will the piston fail? SHOW
