A quantity of gas occupies a certain volume when the temperature is -73oC and the pressure is 1.5 atmospheres. If the pressure is increased to 4.5 atmospheres and the volume is halved at the same time, what will be the new temperature of the gas?
573oC
327oC
300oC
110oC
27oC
Correct answer is E
General Gas Law:
P1V1T1 = P2V2T2
where T1 = -73 + 273 = 200k, T2 = ?,
V1 = 1, V2 = 12V,
P1 = 1.5, P2 = 4.5
T2 = P2V2T1P1V1
T2 = 4.5∗1/2∗2001.5X1
T2 → 300k or 27ºC
