Answer:

Volume of air in the tank =1,044 Liter

Explanation:

Given:

Tank volume = 8 Liter

Pressure = 141 atm

Temperature = 22°C = 273° + 20° = 295° K

Find:

Volume of air in the tank = ?

Computation:


(Pressure* Tank\ volume)/(Tempreture) =(Pressure* Air\ volume)/(Tempreture)\\\\(141* 8)/(295) =(1* Air\ volume)/(273.15)\\\\(1,128)/(295) =(Air\ volume)/(273.15)\\\\Air\ volume=1,044.45

Volume of air in the tank =1,044 Liter
