Question

Please help me, It's my last question :)

Imagine you have a 5L balloon that you would like to fit into a 3L container. The current temperature is 298 K. At what temperature would you need to change the system to allow the balloon to fit into the container? Show your work.

Answer 1

Given:

`V_(1) = \text{5 L}`

`T_(1) = \text{298 K}`

`V_(2) = \text{3 L}`

Unknown:

`T_(2)`

Solution:

`(V_(1))/(T_(1)) = (V_(2))/(T_(2))`

`T_(2) = T_(1) * (V_(2))/(V_(1))`

`T_(2) = \text{298 K} * \frac{\text{3 L}}{\text{5 L}}`

`\boxed{T_(2) = \text{179 K}}`

`\\`
