Answer:
1.654 atm.
Step-by-step explanation:
- We can use the general law of ideal gas: PV = nRT.
where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm.
V is the volume of the gas in L.
n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol.
R is the general gas constant,
T is the temperature of the gas in K.
- If n and V are constant, and have different values of P and T:
(P₁T₂) = (P₂T₁)
P₁ = 1.0 atm, T₁ = 25°C + 273 = 298 K,
P₂ = ??? atm, T₂ = 220°C + 273 = 493 K,
- Applying in the above equation
(P₁T₂) = (P₂T₁)
∴ P₂ = (P₁T₂)/(T₁) = (1.0 atm)(493 K)/(298 K) = 1.654 atm.
