A sample of carbon dioxide occupies a volume of 2.50L liters at 300kPa pressure and a temperature 273K. What pressure would the gas exert if the volume was decreased to 1.00L at 308K?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer to your question is:    P2 = 846 kPa

Explanation:

Data

V1 = 2.5 l

P1 = 300 kPa

T1 = 273 °K

P2 = ?

V2 = 1 l

T2 = 308°K

Formula

             [tex]\frac{P1V1}{T1}  = \frac{P2V2}{T2}[/tex]

             [tex]P2 = \frac{P1V1T2}{T1V2} \\[/tex]

             [tex]P2 = \frac{(300)(2.5)(308)}{(273)(1)} \\[/tex]

            [tex]P2 = \frac{231000}{273} \\[/tex]

            P2 = 846 kPa
