Question

A sample of gas with an initial volume of 28.4 L at a pressure of 724 mm Hg and a temperature of 303 K is compressed to a volume of 15.5 L and warmed to a temperature of 379 K. What is the final pressure of the gas?

Answer 1

To solve this question, we need to use the combined gas equation which is given as

`\begin{gathered} (P_1V_1)/(T_1)=(P_2V_2)/(T_2) \\ p=\text{pressure} \\ v=\text{volume} \\ t=\text{temperature} \end{gathered}`

Now we should write down the given data

So, we would use the previous equation i wrote down.

From the calculations above, the final pressure of the gas is 1659.28mmHg
