Answer:

60.9 Kelvin

Explanation: First, write out everything that you know. You are tring to find the temperature, so the temperature will be represented by x.

Pressure (P)= 4.5 atm

Volume (V)= 3L

Number of Moles (n)= ?

Gas Consant (R)= 0.0821, if the pressure is in atm, that means r is 0.0821

Temperature (T)= x

We don't have all the information we need to plug the values into the equation. We still need to know how many moles 55.0 grans of neon is.

Ne in Grams= 55

Atomic Mass of Ne= 20.1797

55/20.1797= 2.7

moles= 2.7

Now that we have all the information we need, plug everying into the equation. In case you don't know, the Ideal Gas Law Equation is PV= nRT.

(4.5)(3) = (2.7)(0.821)x

x= 60.9

Now you have your temperature! It is 60.9 in Kelvin.
