A sample of argon gas is at a temperature of 20 degrees celsius. The temperature is increased to 30 degrees celsius so that the volume is now 373 mL. What was the original volume?

Respuesta :

The original volume is equal to 248.6 mL.

General gas law

To find the value of pressure, volume or temperature of a gas after a transformation, one must use the general gas law:

                                                [tex]\frac{P_1 V_1}{T_1} =\frac{P_2 V_2}{T_2}[/tex]

Thus, as the pressure does not change, it is enough to substitute the values ​​in the above formula, such that:

                                               [tex]\frac{V_1}{20}=\frac{373}{30} \\ V_1 = 248.6mL[/tex]

So, the original volume is equal to 248.6 mL.
