Hello There!!

Given:-


\text{V}_1 = 50 \text{ml }\\ \text{T}_1 = 200 \text{K} \\ \text{V}_2 = ? \\ \text{T}_2 = 400 \text{K}

To find:-


\text{The Value of V}_2

Solution


\frac{ \text{V}_1}{ \text{T}_1} = \frac{ \text{V}_2}{ \text{T}_2}


(50)/(200) =\frac{ \text{V}_2}{400} \\ \\ \fbox{cross multiplying} \\ \\ \implies 200 * V_2 = 50 * 400 \\ \\ \implies V_2 = (50 * 400)/(200) \\ \\ \implies V_2 = \frac{50 * \cancel{ 400} { \: \: \: }^(2) }{ \cancel{200}} \\ \\ \implies V_2 = 50 * 2 \\ \\ \implies V_2 = 100


\therefore \implies V_2 = 100 \text{ml}

Hope This Helps!!
