Question

The pressure in a car tire is 298 kilopascals at 300 Kelvin. After a long drive, the pressure becomes 325 kilopascals. Which law will you use to calculate the new temperature in the tire assuming that the volume is constant?

Answer 1

Answer: Gay lussac's law and final temperature is 327K.

Step-by-step explanation: Gay-Lussac's Law: This law states that pressure is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant volume and number of moles.

`P\propto T` (At constant volume and number of moles)

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

`(298kPa)/(300K)=(325kPa)/(T_2)`

`T_2=327K`
