Question

A cylinder with a movable piston contains 3 moles of hydrogen at standard temperature and pressure. The walls of the cylinder are made of heat insulator, and the piston is insulated by having a pile of sand on it/ by what factor does the pressure of the gas increase, if the gas is compressed to half it original volume?
