Question

The volume of a sample of carbon dioxide gas is 26.42 L at 73.0°C. What will its volume be at 92.0°C at constant pressure?

Answer 1

Answer:

$V_2=27.87L$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to solve this problem by using the Charles' law a directly proportional relationship to understand the volume-temperature behavior:

$\frac{V_2}{T_2} =\frac{V_1}{T_1}$

Thus, we solve for the final volume, V2, and make sure the temperature are in Kelvin as shown below:

$V_2 =\frac{V_1T_2}{T_1} \\\\V_2=\frac{26.42L(92+273.15)K}{(73+273.15)K} \\\\V_2=27.87L$
