If a sample of N gas was put into a flexible container at an pressure of 25.5kPa, temperature of 35.9 C and a volume of 500. mL, what would the final temperature of the gas be if the pressure was changed to .625 atm and the volume was change to 625mL?

1 Answer

705C

Explanation:

First look at the things that need to be converted

35.9C=(35.9 + 273.15) K=309.0 K

25.5 kPa = 0.2467 atm

500 mL = 0.500 L

625 mL = 0.625 L

P1V1T1=P2V2T2

Plug in the variables

0.2467 atm×0.500 L309.0 K=0.625 atm×0.625 LT2

T2=978.5K

or T2=(978.5273.15)C=705C
