2. The temperature of a gas is increased from 125⁰C to 182⁰C inside of a rigid container. The original pressure of the gas was 1.22atm, what will the pressure of the gas be after the temperature change?

P1/T1 = P2/T2

125⁰C = 398.15 k

182⁰C = 455.15 k

1.22/398.15 = p2/455.15


p2= 1.39atm

the pressure of the gas be after the temperature change is 1.39 atm

Answer:

1.4 atm

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Gay Lussac’s law, the pressure of gas is inversely proportional t its temperature, when the volume is constant

Initial temperature = 125 + 273 = 398 K

Final temperature = 182 + 273 = 455 K

Initial pressure = 1.22 atm


(P1)/(T1) = (P2)/(T2)

1.22 atm / 398 K = P₂/ 455 K

P₂ =
(1.22 atm x 455 K)/(398 K) = 1.4 atm
