Answer to Question #25169 in Inorganic Chemistry for Elizabeth

Question

A sample of nitrogen gas exerts a pressure of 9.80 atm at 32 °C. What would its temperature be (in °C) when its pressure is increased to 11.2 atm?

Answer 1

For answering this question you need to use the next law:
PV = nRT
V, R, n are constants
P is pressure
T is temperature
From the first law:
P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂
T₂ = P₂/(P₁/T₁)
So the answer is T₂ = 36.6
