Question

A gas at a pressure of 5 atm is heated from 0° to 546°c and is simultaneously compressed to one third of its original volume. Find the final pressure of the gas.

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

The combined gas equation is,

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

where,

= initial pressure of gas = 5 atm

= final pressure of gas = ?

= initial volume of gas = 3x L

= final volume of gas = x L

= initial temperature of gas =

= final temperature of gas =

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the final pressure of the gas.

Therefore, the final pressure of the gas is, 45 atm.
