Answer:

The final temperature of ethane is 323.8°C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

At initial condition


T_1=100^(\circ)

Lets take initial volume of ethane is V,then the final volume of ethane increase to 60% it means the the final volume is 1.6V.

As we know that at constant pressure


(V_1)/(T_1)=(V_2)/(T_2)

So now by putting the values


(V_1)/(T_1)=(V_2)/(T_2)


(V)/(100+273)=(1.6V)/(T_2)


T_2=596.8K


T_2=323.8^(\circ)

So the final temperature of ethane is 323.8°C
