Answer:
0.7atm
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Initial temperature = 25.2°C in Kelvin; 25.2 + 273 = 298.2K
Initial pressure = 0.6atm
Final temperature = 72.4°C in kelvin = 72.4 + 273 = 345.4K
Unknown:
Final pressure = ?
Solution:
Since we are dealing with pressure temperature relationships under a fixed volume, we use a simplification of the combined gas law to solve this problem.
At fixed volume;
[tex]\frac{P_{1} }{T_{1} } = \frac{P_{2} }{_T{2} }[/tex]
where P and T are temperature values
1 and 2 are the initial and final states
Input the parameters and solve for P₂
[tex]\frac{0.6}{298.2} = \frac{P_{2} }{345.4}[/tex]
P₂ = 0.7atm
