Unheated

heated
The unheated gas in the above system has a volume of 20.0L
at a temperature of 25.0°C and a pressure of 1.00 atm. The
gas is heated to a temperature of 100.0 °C while the volume
remains constant. What is the pressure of the heated gas?
Ignore the block labeled "A".

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Combined Gas Law, which is:


(P_1V_1)/(T_1) =(P_2V_2)/(T_2)

(With
P_1,V_1,T_1 being initial pressure, volume and temperature; and


P_2,V_2,T_2 being the new values)

We can move the units around in order to solve for
P_2, which would look like this:


P_(2) =(P_1V_1T_2)/(V_2T_1)

Then we convert the Celsius temperature to Kelvin:


25 °
C =
289
K


100 °
C =
373
K

And now, we plug in all of the values and solve, with volume remaining as a constant:


P_(2) =((1.00 atm) (20.0 L) (373 K))/((20.0 L) (298 K))
=


1.25
atm or
127
kPa
