A sample of gas in a balloon has an initial temperature of 22 ∘C and a volume of 1820 L . If the temperature changes to 84 ∘C , and there is no change of pressure or amount of gas, what is the new volume, V2, of the gas?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The new volume of the gas is 1955.65 L.

Explanation:

Initial temperature of the gas in the balloon =[tex]T_1[/tex]= 22°C = 295.15 K

Initial volume of the the gas [tex]V_1[/tex]= 1820 L

Final temperature of the gas in the balloon[tex]T_2[/tex] = 84°C = 317.15 K

Final volume of the the gas = [tex]V_2=?[/tex]

Under constant pressure and amount of gas, the gas will follow Charles' law:

[tex]\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}[/tex] (Constant pressure)

[tex]V_2=\frac{1820 L\times 317.15 K}{295.15 K}=1955.65 L[/tex]

The new volume of the gas is 1955.65 L.
