Question

A sample of gas has a volume of 1.9L and a temperature of 21 degrees celsius. Heat is applied to the sample, leading to an increase in temperature to 27 degrees celsius. The sample is held at constant pressure. Solve for the final volume.

Answer 1

1.94 L

Step-by-step explanation:

21°C = 21 +273 = 294 K

27°C = 27 + 273 = 300 K

T1/V1 = T2/V2

294 K/1.9 L = 300 K/x L

x = (1.9*300)/294 ≈ 1.94 L
