Final Answer:​

Answer 1

See below ~

Step-by-step explanation:

Q1

Given :

• V₁ = 2.3L
• T₁ = 25°C = 298 K
• T₂ = 40°C = 313 K

Unknown :

• V₂

Formula :

• V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂ (Charles Law)

Solution :

• 2.3/298 = V₂/313
• V₂ = 313/298 x 2.3
• V₂ = 1.05 x 2.3
• V₂ = 2.42 L

Final Answer :

• 2.42 L

Q2

Given :

• P₁ = 1.01 atm
• V₁ = 6 L
• V₂ = 3 L

Unknown :

• V₂

Formula :

• P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

Solution :

• 1.01 x 6 = P₂ x 3
• P₂ = 1.01 x 2
• P₂ = 2.02 atm

Final Answer :

• 2.02 atm

Answer 2

Convert

• Temp to Kelvin
• 25°C=298K
• 40°C=313K

Apply Charles law

• V1T2=V2T1
• 2.3(313)=298V2
• 719.9=298V2
• V2=2.4L
