Calculate the Kelvin temperature to which 10.0 L of a gas at 27 °C would have to be heated to change the volume to 12.0 L. Units of Kelvin are assumed here for the answer you enter so just put the number value.

Hello!

For this problem, we will be applying Charles' Law:

V1/T1 = V2/T2

Now that we have the formula, let's convert the temperature to Kelvin.

27 + 273 = 300K

Let's plug everything in now!

10/300 = 12.0/x

Simplified:

1/30 = 12.0/x

Cross-multiply:

1x = 30*12.0

x = 360

Check!

10/300 = 12/360

300*12 = 360*10

3600 = 3600

Therefore, you would have to heat the gas at a temperature of 360K in order to raise the volume to 12.0L.
