Answer:

  • initial temp: 313.2 K
  • final temp: 340.5 K
  • in Celsius: 67.3 °C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a volume and quantity of gas at 699.0 mm Hg pressure has a temperature of 40.0 °C, you want to know the temperature at 760.0 mm Hg pressure.

Pressure and Temperature

Pressure and absolute temperature of a gas are proportional for a given quantity and volume.

Initial temperature

The temperature of 40.0 °C is an absolute temperature of ...

40.0 K + 273.15 K = 313.15 K ≈ 313.2 K

New temperature

The temperature after increasing the pressure can be found from ...

T/313.15 = (760.0 mm)/(699.0 mm)

T = 313.15 · 760/699 ≈ 340.5 . . . . Kelvin

In Celsius, that is ...

340.5 K -273.2 = 67.3 °C
