Question

A gas sample of Xe occupies 10-liter balloon at 27 degrees C under a pressure of 1.2 atm. Approximately what volume would the gas occupy at 350 K and 2 atm of pressure? A. 7 liters B. 9 liters C. 13 liters D. 18 liters

Answer 1

A. 7 liters
I'm quite sure that's what it is

Answer 2

Option A, 7 L

Step-by-step explanation:

Ideal gas equation,

`(P_1 V_1)/(T_1) = (P_2 V_2)/(T_2)`

P1 = 1.2 atm

V1 = 10 L

T1 = 27 °C = 27 + 273 = 300 K

P2 = 2 atm

T2 = 350 K

`(P_1 V_1)/(T_1) = (P_2 V_2)/(T_2)`

`(1.2* 10)/(300) = (2* V_2)/(350)`

`V_2=(1.2* 10* 350)/(2* 300) = 7\ L`

So, option A is correct
