Question 8

1 pts
A gas is initially at 15 °C at 6 atm and occupies 49 liters. What will its new volume be if its temperature increases to 87 °C and its
pressure is dropped to 2 atm? Round your answer to the nearest liter.

Answer 1

There are many ways to solve this question .We will use Temperature

• T_1=15°C=288K
• T_2=87°C=360K
• V_1=49L

Using charles law

`\\ \sf\longmapsto (V_1)/(V_2)=(T_1)/(T_2)`

`\\ \sf\longmapsto V_2=(V_1T_2)/(T_1)`

`\\ \sf\longmapsto V_2=(49(360))/(288)`

`\\ \sf\longmapsto V_2=(17640)/(288)`

`\\ \sf\longmapsto V_2=61.25L`
