A 3.5L flexible container holds a gas at 250K. What will the new volume be if the temperature is increased to 400K?

Respuesta :

Answer: 5.6L

Explanation:

Just did it on an assignment

A 3.5L flexible container holds a gas at 250K. The new volume will be 5.6 L, if the temperature is increased to 400K.

What is Charles Law ?

Charles law is an ideal gas law which states that at a constant pressure volume of a gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature.

It is expressed as

[tex]\frac{V_1}{T_1} = \frac{V_2}{T_2}[/tex]

where,

V₁ = initial volume

T₁ = initial temperature

V₂ = final temperature

T₂ = final temperature

Now put the values in above formula, we get

[tex]\frac{V_1}{T_1} = \frac{V_2}{T_2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3.5\ L}{250\ K} = \frac{V_2}{400\ K}[/tex]

[tex]V_{2} = \frac{3.5\ L \times 400\ K}{250\ K}[/tex]

[tex]V_{2} = \frac{1400}{250}[/tex]

V₂ = 5.6 L

Thus, from the above conclusion we can say that A 3.5L flexible container holds a gas at 250K. The new volume will be 5.6 L, if the temperature is increased to 400K.
