Question

What is final volume if 3.4L of nitrogen gas at 400k is cooled to 300k and kept the same pressure

Answer 1

So,

The Charles law states that, at a constant pressure, the initial and final volume and temperature of a gas is described with the following equation:

`(V_1)/(T_1)=(V_2)/(T_2)`

In this question, we're asked to find the value of V2.

Replacing our values:

`\begin{gathered} (3.4L)/(400K)=(V_2)/(300K) \\ \\ V_2=((3.4L)(300K))/(400K) \\ \\ V_2=2.55L \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the final volume is 2.55L.
