Answer:

The answer to your question is P2 = 2676.6 kPa

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Volume 1 = V1 = 12.8 L Volume 2 = V2 = 855 ml

Temperature 1 = T1 = -108°C Temperature 2 = 22°C

Pressure 1 = P1 = 100 kPa Pressure 2 = P2 = ?

Process

- To solve this problem use the Combined gas law.

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

-Solve for P2

P2 = P1V1T2 / T1V2

- Convert temperature to °K

T1 = -108 + 273 = 165°K

T2 = 22 + 273 = 295°K

- Convert volume 2 to liters

1000 ml -------------------- 1 l

855 ml -------------------- x

x = (855 x 1) / 1000

x = 0.855 l

-Substitution

P2 = (12.8 x 100 x 295) / (165 x 0.855)

-Simplification

P2 = 377600 / 141.075

-Result

P2 = 2676.6 kPa
