A cylinder of gas with a pressure of 8.0 atm is heated from 300. K to 600. K. What will the new pressure of the gas be?

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]P_2=16atm[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, we can infer we need to use the Gay-Lussac's equation it order to understand this pressure-temperature relationship as shown below:

[tex]\frac{P_1}{V_1}=\frac{P_2}{V_2}[/tex]

Thus, we solve for P2 and plug in P1, T1 and T2, to obtain:

[tex]P_2=\frac{P_1T_2}{T_1}\\\\P_2=\frac{8atm*600K}{300K}\\\\P_2=16atm[/tex]
