Answer:

97.44 K

Step-by-step explanation:

to answer this one you should use the ideal gas law PV=nRT where P=pressure, V=volume, n=number of moles of gas, R=universal gas constant (0.0821), and T=temperature in Kelvin. All you have to do is substitute the givens into the equation.

(3.10)(16)=(6.20)(0.0821)(T)

then simplify

49.6=(.50902)(T)

divide to get T alone and you get about 97.44 K as your answer
