Question

In a garage at a temperature of 25°C, the tires of a car were inflated to a volume of 10. 0 L and a constant pressure of 1,672

mmHg. The tires underwent several temperature changes as the car was driven across the U. S. From Alaska to Arizona.

A. The lowest temperature during the trip was in Alaska, reaching a minimum of -7. 5°C. Make a claim about the change in

volume the tires would undergo at this temperature, compared to the conditions in the garage with constant pressure.

Support your claim with a gas law calculation.

B. The highest temperature during the trip was in Arizona, reaching a maximum of 45°C. Make a claim about the change in

volume the tires would undergo at this temperature, compared to the conditions in the garage with constant pressure.

Support your claim with a gas law calculation.

C. What is different about the motion of the gas particles in the tires, at the temperatures of -7. 5°C and 45°C?

Answer 1

the answer is A The claim is that the volume of the tires will decrease at a temperature of -7.5°C compared to the conditions in the garage at 25°C and constant pressure. We can use the combined gas law to support this claim
