Question

A sample of gas at 3000 mm Hg inside a steel tank is cooled ending at a final temperature of 0.00 °C and a final pressure of 1060 mm Hg. What was the initial temperature (in K) of this gas? I just need the answer no work needed.

Answer 1

Answer:

P1 / T1 = P2 / T2

P1T2 = P2T1

P2 = (P1T2) / T1

P2 = [(3000 mmHg) (273 K)] / 773 K

The answer should be determined to three significant figures.
