Question

The temperature of a 350. mL sample of gas increases from 27 °C to 227 °C. What is the final volume of the sample of gas, if the pressure and amount of gas in the container is kept constant?

Answer 1

`V_2=583.3mL`

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the given constant amount and pressure of the, we apply the Charles' law which allows us to understand the volume-pressure behavior as a directly proportional relationship:

`(V_1)/(T_1) =(V_2)/(T_2)`

Thus, since we need to compute the volume after the temperature increase (which must be expressed in absolute Kelvins), we obtain V2 as:

`V_2=(V_1T_2)/(T_1) =(350.0mL*(227+273.15)K)/((27+273.15)K)\\ \\V_2=583.3mL`

Best regards.
