Question

An ideal gas has a volume of 18.25 L at a temperature of 15.9 °C. The temperature of the gas is raised to 40.7 °C while the number of moles and the pressure of the gas are kept constant. What is the new volume of the gas (in L)?

B: An ideal gas has a volume of 10.8 L at a temperature of 25.0 °C and a pressure of 60 atm. The pressure of the gas is reduced to 370.0 mmHg, but the temperature and number of moles of the gas are kept constant. What is the new volume of the gas (in L)?

Answer 2

V₂ = V₁ / T₁ * T₂ . If you prefer to set the final volume and want to estimate the resulting temperature, then the equation of Charles' law changes to: T2=T1/T1 multiplied by v^2.
