Question

P1/T1 = P2/T2

pleasee show work

10. The new pressure of a gas is 150kPa. What is the new temperature of the gas if
the original gas was at STP?

Answer 1

We have:
P1 = 101.3 kPa
T1 = 273.15 K
P2 = 150 kPa
T2 = ?

Using the equation P1/T1 = P2/T2, we can substitute the given values:

101.3 kPa / 273.15 K = 150 kPa / T2

Cross-multiplying:

101.3 kPa * T2 = 273.15 K * 150 kPa

Dividing both sides by 101.3 kPa:

T2 = (273.15 K * 150 kPa) / 101.3 kPa

Calculating:

T2 ≈ 404.46 K
