Answer to Question #99822 in General Chemistry for Kelli

Question

A gas cylinder is filled with argon at a pressure of 177atm and 25•C. What is the gas pressure when the temperature of the cylinder and its contents are heated to 195•C by exposure to fire?

Answer 1

$$PV = nRT$$

Where P- pressure of gas, V - Volume of cylinder, T - temperature, R - constant

$$P_{2}= \frac{T_{2}P_{1}}{T_{1}}$$

$$P_{2} = 277 atm$$
