What will be the volume of a gas in liters of a sample at 375 K if a sample at 298 K is 2.7 L? Roundyour answer to 1 digit after the decimal point. Include proper units (abbreviated).

Sagot :

Answer

3.4 L

Explanation

Given:

Initial temperature T₁ = 375 K

Final volume of the gas, V₂ = 2.7 L

Final temperature, T₂ = 298 K

What to find:

The volume of the gas in liters at 375 K

Step-by-step solution:

The volume of the gas in liters at 375 K can be calculated using Charle's law formula.

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2} \\ \\ \Rightarrow V_1=\frac{T_1V_2}{T_2} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Putting the values of the parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]V_1=\frac{375\text{ }K\times2.7\text{ }L}{298\text{ }K}=3.4\text{ }L[/tex]

The volume of the gas in liters at 375 K is 3.4 L
