Question

A definite quantity of an ideal gas is confined in a container of constant volume.
When the container is immersed in a bath of melting ice,the pressure of the gas is 800
mm of Hg. Find the temperature when the gas pressure is 400mm of Hg.

Answer 1

Answer:

V1=V2=V

P1=100 cmHg

T1=273K

P2=10 cmHg

T2=?K

T1P1V1=T2P2V2

273100×V=T210×V

T2=27.3 cm Hg
