A sample of helium gas inside a closed but flexible container occupies a volume of 355mL at 23°C. If the pressure is held constant, to what temperature must the He be raised to cause the container to expand to a final volume of 1.50 L?

Respuesta :

Answer:

978.19° C

Explanation:

P1V1/T1 =P2V2/T2     Since the pressure is constant, this can be written as

V1/T1 = V2/T2      RE-ARRANGE TO

V2 *  T1/V1   = T2       Note:  T must be in Kelvin!!

1.5 L  *  (273.15 + 23)  / (.355 L ) = T2 = 1251.338 K  =978.19 C
