Question

A 4.0 L container holds a sample of hydrogen gas at 296 K and 130 kPa.If the pressure increases to 380 kPa and the volume remains constant, what will the new temperature be?Round your answer to one decimal place.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given: volume = 4 L constant

: Initial temperature = 296K

: Initial pressure = 130kPa

: Final pressure = 380kPa

To find the final temperature, we use:

`\begin{gathered} (P_1)/(T_1)\text{ = }(P_2)/(T_2) \\ \\ \therefore T_2\text{ = }(P_2T_1)/(P_1)\text{ = }\frac{380\text{ }*\text{ 296}}{130}\text{ = 865.2K} \end{gathered}`
