Question

What is the new temperature when 10 L at 5 K is compressed to 4.00 L

a) 20 K
b) 25 K
c) 2 K
d) 0.5 K

Answer 1

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we would use Charles's Law. We fill in what we are given and solve.

Charles's Law:
`(V_(1) )/(T_(1) ) =(V_(2) )/(T_(2) )`

`(10 L)/(5K) =(4.00L)/(T_(2) )`

`10T_(2)= 20`

`T_(2)=2K`
