Answer to Question #167972 in General Chemistry for WEQA

Question

Please write the steps

A sample of nitrogen gas occupies a volume of 8.41 L at 47.0°C and 0.753 atm.

If it is desired to increase the volume of the gas sample to 11.1 L, while increasing its pressure to 1.12 atm, the temperature of the gas sample at the new volume and pressure must be .............°C.

Answer 1

$$P1V1/T1=P2V2/T2$$

$$T2=P2V2T1/(P1V1)$$

$$T2=1.12*11.1*(273+47)/(0.753*8.41)=628.2K=355C$$
