Can someone please help me with this ? Neon gas in a container was heated from 20°C to 120°C. It's new volume is 150ml. What was the original volume ?

Answer:

110 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

Ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

Assuming the container isn't rigid, and the pressure is constant, then:

V/T = V/T

Plug in values (remember to use absolute temperature).

V / 293 K = 150 mL / 393 K

V = 110 mL
