Question

Gas law problem: A gas has a volume of 800 mL at -25℃ and 600 kPa. What would the volume of the gas be at 227℃ and 1000 kPa?

Answer 1

Answer;

= 930.23 mL

Step-by-step explanation;

Using the combined gas law;

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

Where; P1 = 600 kPa, V1 = 800 mL, and T1 = -25 +273 = 258 K, and

V2= ?, P2 = 1000 kPa, and T2 = 227 +273 = 500 K

Thus;

V2 = P1V1T2/T1P2

= (600 ×800 ×500) / (258 × 1000)

= 930.23 mL
