Question

A container holds 40.0 mL of nitrogen at 30° C and at a constant pressure.

Find its volume if the temperature increases to 80° C?

Answer 1

The correct answer is - 46.60 mL.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of the gas at its new increased temperature we need to use Charl Law that shows the direct relationship between Volume and Temperature while Pressure remains constant.

V1 = 40 ml

T1 = 30 degree C + 273 = 303 K

V2 = ?

T2 = 80 degree C + 273 = 353 K

Charl Equation is:

V 1/T 1 = V 2/ T 2

(V1) * (T2)/ T1= V2

placing value:

40*353/303 = V2

= 14120/303

Vf = 46.60 mL
