If 10.0 liters of oxygen at STP are heated to 785.15 °K, what will be the new volume of gas if the pressure is also increased to 102.6 Kpa of pressure?

Respuesta :

Answer: The new volume of gas is 28.5 L

Explanation:

The combined gas equation is,

[tex]\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}[/tex]

where,

[tex]P_1[/tex] = initial pressure of gas = 1.00 atm (at STP)

[tex]P_2[/tex] = final pressure of gas = 102.6 kPa = 1.01 atm    (1 kPa= 0.0098 atm)

[tex]V_1[/tex] = initial volume of gas = 10.0 L

[tex]V_2[/tex] = final volume of gas = ?

[tex]T_1[/tex] = initial temperature of gas = [tex]273.15K[/tex]  (STP)

[tex]T_2[/tex] = final temperature of gas = [tex]785.15K[/tex]

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

[tex]\frac{1.00\times 10.0}{273.15}=\frac{1.01\times V_2}{785.15}[/tex]

[tex]V_2=28.5L[/tex]

The new volume of gas is 28.5 L
