Question

One way to heat a gas is to compress it. a gas at 1.00 atm at 25.0°c is compressed to one tenth of its original volume, and it reaches 40.0 atm pressure. what is its new temperature?

Answer 1

(p1)(V1)/(T1) = (p2)(V2)/(T2)
(1.00 atm)(V) / (273 + 25K) = (40.0 atm)(V/10) / (273 + T)
273 + T = (40.0)(1/10)(273 + 25K) / (1.00)
T = 919°C
