A sample of a gas has volume 78.5ml at 318.15 K.. What Volume at will the sample occupy at

273. 15 K when the pressure is held constant?

Charles'law:

V₁/T₁=V₂/T₂

78.5/318.15 = V₂/273.15

V₂=67.4 ml

Required answer :

We know that,

Charle's Law :


  • \red{\boxed{ \sf (V_(1))/(T_(1)) \: = \: (V_(2))/(T_(2)) }} \: \pink \bigstar

We have :

  • V_1 = 78.5 ml
  • T_1 = 318.15 K
  • T_2 = 273.15 K
  • V_2 = ?

(V is volume and T is temperature)

Substituting the values :


\implies \: \sf (78.5)/(318.15) \: = \: ( V_2)/(273.15) \\ \\ \implies \: \sf 78.5 *273.15 \: = \: V_2 * 318.15 \\ \\ \implies \: \sf { 21442.275 \: = \: V_2 * 318.15} \\ \\\implies \: \sf {V_2 = ( 21442.275 )/(318.15)} \\ \\ \implies \: \bf {V_2 = 67.3 \: (approx) }
