Question

Using the same sample of gas (P1 = 675 torr, T1 = 41 °C), we wish to change the pressure to 6750 torr with no accompanying change in volume or amount of gas. What temperature Ty, in Celsius, is needed to reach this pressure? Express your answer with the appropriate units. View Available Hint(s) HAR O ? A T2 - Value 2 Submit

Answer 1

Solution-

Using the equation

p1/T1 = p2/T2

here we assume P1 = 675 torr, T1 = 41°C
From here we can find

T2 = p2*T1/p1 = 6750*(273+41)/675

T2 = 3140 °K
Now converting it in degree C

= 3140-273

= 2867°C
