Question

Sonam has a tank that holds 0.5L of air at a temperature of 300K and a pressure

of 880kPa.

What volume would the air occupy if it were released into the atmosphere, where

the pressure is 102kPa and the temperature is 327K?​

Answer 1

Answer:

4.70 L

Explanation:

Use the basic relationship:

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

Re-arrange to:

P1V1 T2 / (T1P2) = V2   To find the new volume

Sub in the values:

880 * .5 * 327 / ( 300*102) = 4.70 L
