Question

The volume and amount of aflium gas remains constant.

Under these conditions, aflium gas has an initial pressure of
635 torr when it is at 67.0°C. What is the new temperature if
the pressure drops to 250 torr?

Answer 1

133.85 K

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial pressure, P₁ = 635 torr

Initial temperature, T₁ = 67.0°C = 340 K

Final pressure, P₂ = 250 torr

We need to find the new temperature. The relation between temperature and pressure is given by :

`(P_1)/(T_1)=(P_2)/(T_2)\\\\T_2=(P_2T_1)/(P_1)\\\\T_2=(250* 340)/(635)\\\\T_2=133.85\ K`

So, the new temperature is equal to 133.85 K.
