Answer 1

1. Solved by Charles' Law

2. 621 L

Step-by-step explanation:

Data Given:

Initial temperature T1=331 K

final Temperature T2= 376 K

initial volume V1 = 547 L

final volume V2 = ?

Solution:

This problem will be solved by Charles' Law equation at constant pressure

Charles' Law: It state that volume have direct relation with temperature at constant pressure.

V1 / T1 = V2 / T2 . . . . . . . . (1)

put values in above equation

547 L / 331 K = V2 / 376 K

Rearrange the above equation to calculate V2

V2 = ( 547 L / 331 K) x 376 K

V2 = ( 1.653 L . K) x 376 K

V2 = 621 L

So the final volume = 621 L

So by increase of the temperature volume also increase according to Charles' law
