The air temperature in a 28 in.3 container with a free sliding piston is initially measured at 45 °
f. the temperature is raised to 200 °
f. what is the new volume of the container?

Respuesta :

To solve this we assume that the gas inside is an ideal gas. Then, we can use the ideal gas equation which is expressed as PV = nRT. At a constant pressure and number of moles of the gas the ratio T/V is equal to some constant. At another set of condition of temperature, the constant is still the same. Calculations are as follows:

T1 / V1 = T2 / V2

V2 = T2 x V1 / T1

V2 = 659.7 x 28 / 504.7

V2 = 36.60 in^3
