A sample of nitrogen gas occupies a volume of 375 mL at 0.0°C. What does
the temperature have to reach for the new volume to be at 500.0 mL if the
pressure remains constant
?

Answer 1

364 K or 91°C

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying,

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂................ Equation 1

Where V₁ = Initial Volume, V₂ = Final volume, T₁ = initial Temperature, T₂ = final Temperature.

make T₂ the subject of the equation,

T₂ = V₂T₁/V₁................. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: V₁ = 375 mL, V₂ = 500 mL, T₁ = 0.0°C = (273+0) K = 273 K

Substitute these values into equation 2

T₂ = (500×273)/375

T₂ = 364 K

T₂ = (364-273) °C = 91 °C
