atm on a day that is -7.50°C. When you arrive in FL at 38°C, you check the pressure in your tires before you ride, what do you find the pressure to be?
Type your answer with the proper number of significant figures and proper units in the space below.

Answer 1

2.3 atm

Step-by-step explanation:

-7.50°C = 265.5 K

38°C = 315 K

(2.72)(265.5)=(pressure)(315)

pressure = 2.3 atm
