Question

A 595 mL sample of chlorine gas at 24.7°C is held at constant pressure while it is heated and the volume of the gas expands to 876mL. What is the new temperature in Kelvin?

A) 83.7 K
B) 202 K
C) 365 K
D) 438 K

Answer 1

the person above is right.... its D, just took the test

Answer 2

Formula

`\ \textless \ \ \textgreater \ math (V1)/(T1) \ { = } (V2)/(T2) \ \textless \ /math\ \textgreater \`
Givens

V1 = 595 mL
T1 = 24.7° C = 24.7° + 273 = 297.7° K
V2 = 876 mL
T2 = ???

Substitution and Solve
595 / 297.7 = 876 / x Cross multiply
595*x = 297.7 * 876
x = 297.7 * 876 / 595
x = 260785 /595
x = 438 degrees Kelvin

T2 = 438 degrees Kelvin
D <<<< answer
