The pressure, volume, and temperature of a mole of an ideal gas are related by the equation PV = 8.31T, where P is measured in kilopascals, V in liters, and T in kelvins. Use differentials to find the approximate change in the pressure if the volume increases from 10 L to 10.6 L and the temperature decreases from 345 K to 335 K. (Note whether the change is positive or negative in your answer. Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answer:25.26 kPa

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

PV=8.31T

dV=10.6-10=0.6 L

dT=335-345=-10 K

[tex]P(10)=8.31\times 345[/tex]

P=282.54 kPa

PV=8.31 T

differentiate

d(PV)=8.31 dT

PdV+VdP=8.31dT

[tex]282.54\times 0.6+10\times dP=8.31\times (-10)[/tex]

dP=25.26 kPa
