Question

A 3.0 L cylinder is heated from an initial temperature of 273 K at a pressure of 105 kPa to a final temperature of 367 K. Assuming the amount of gas and the volume remain the same, what is the pressure (in kilopascals) of the cylinder after being heated?

Answer 1

P₂= 141.15 kPa

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Volume ,V= 3 L

V= 0.003 m³

Initial temperature ,T₁ = 273 K

Initial pressure ,P₁ = 105 kPa

Final temperature ,T₂ = 367 K

Given that volume of the cylinder is constant .

Lets take final pressure = P₂

We know that for constant volume process

`(P_2)/(P_1)=(T_2)/(T_1)\\P_2=P_1* (T_2)/(T_1)\\P_2=105* (367)/(273)\ kPa\\\\P_2=141.15\ kPa`

Therefore the final pressure = 141.15 kPa

P₂= 141.15 kPa
