HELP PLSSS

A 2.5 L container holds a sample of hydrogen gas at 297 K and 120 kPa.

If the pressure increases to 330 kPa and the volume remains constant, what will the new temperature be?

Round your answer to one decimal place.

Answer 1

T2 = 816.8 ( To one d.p)

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume= 2.5 L

Initial Temperature T1 = 297 K

Initial Pressure P1 = 120 kPa

Final Pressure P2 = 330 kPa

Final Temperature T2 = ?

The relationship between pressure and temperature is given by the equation;

P1 / T1 = P2 / T2

T2 = P2 * T1 / P1

Inserting the values;

T2 = 330 * 297 / 120

T2 = 816.75 K
