Question

A syringe contains 56.05 mL of gas at 315.1 K. What volume will that gas occupy if the temperature is increased to 380.5 K?

a) 12.41
b) 46.42
c) 67.68
d) 81.74

Answer 1

Answer:67.68

Step-by-step explanation:

actually the formula is for Charles Law and it is V1/T1 = V2/T2

Answer 2

This is one of the ideal gas laws. Presumably the pressure remains the same so it is not part of the givens.

Formula

V / T = V1 / T1

Givens

• V = 56.05 mL
• T = 315.1 degrees Kelvin
• V1 = x
• T1 = 380.5 degrees Kelvin

Solution

56.05/315.1 = x/380.5 Simplify the left.

0.1779 = x / 380.5 Multiply both sides by 380.5

0.1779 * 380.5 = 380.5x/380.5

67.68 mL = x This is your answer
