Answer: 179 K

Step-by-step explanation:

According to ideal gas equation:


PV=nRT

P = pressure of gas = 1.75 atm

V = Volume of gas = 21 L

n = number of moles = 2.5

R = gas constant =
0.0821Latm/Kmol

T = temperature in Kelvin = ?


T=(PV)/(nR)

Putting the values , we get :


T=(1.75atm* 21L)/(2.5* 0.0820 L atm/K mol)=179K

Thus temperature in kelvin is 179 for 21 L of sulfur dioxide occupy if there are 2.5 mol of it at 1.75 atm
