Answer:

0.432

Step-by-step explanation:

The temperature of the ideal gas in the container shown is 300K. The gas occupies a volume of 1.27. What would be the volume of the gas if it’s temperature were decreased to 100K?

At 100K the particles are moving 1/3 as fast as 300K so the volume would be

1/3 X (1.27) =0.423
