Question

A sample of gas occupies a volume of 27 mL at a temperature of 161K. What is the volume of the temperature if raised to 343K?

Answer 1

Answer: The volume is 57.52 mL if the temperature if raised to 343K.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:
`V_(1)` = 27 mL,
`T_(1)` = 161 K

`V_(2)` = ?,
`T_(2)` = 343 K

According to Charles law, at constant pressure the volume of an ideal gas is directly proportional to temperature.

Formula used is as follows.

`(V_(1))/(T_(1)) = (V_(2))/(T_(2))\\(27 mL)/(161 K) = (V_(2))/(343 K)\\V_(2) = 57.52 mL`

Thus, we can conclude that volume is 57.52 mL if the temperature if raised to 343K.
