A sample of an ideal gas has a volume of 2.28 L at 289 K and 1.01 atm. What is the pressure when the volume is 1.65 L and the temperature is 305 K?

Well, I make P21.4atm

Explanation:

From the old combined gas equation for a GIVEN quantity of gas.....

P1V1T1=P2V2T2...

And so P2=P1V1T1×T2V2

=1.01atm×2.28L289K×305K1.65L=??atm

Is the increase in pressure CONSISTENT with an increase in temperature, and a DECREASE in volume? Si or non....?
