If I have 17 liters of gas at 67C and 88.89 atm, what will be the pressure of the gas if I raise the temperature to 94C and decrease the volume to 12 liters?

A. 140 atm
B. 180 atm

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is A. 140 atm

Explanation:

We use the gas formula, which results from the combination of the Boyle, Charles and Gay-Lussac laws. According to which at a constant mass, temperature, pressure and volume vary, keeping constant PV / T. We convert the unit Celsius into Kelvin:

0 ° C = 273K, 67 ° C = 273 + 67 = 340K; 94 ° C = 273 + 94 = 367K

P1xV1 /T1= P2x V2/T2

P2= ((P1xV1 /T1)xT2)/V2

P2=((88,89atm x 17L/340K)x367K)/12L= 135,927625 atm
