Question

If the pressure of a gas at constant volume is 35 atm at 100"C, what will the pressure be if the temperature is changed to 250C?

Answer 1

Answer:

The pressure increases by 0.03 atm.

This problem involves Gay-Lussac's Law. It states that the pressure exerted on the sides of a container by an ideal gas of fixed volume is proportional to its temperature.

We know

= (1.03 -1.00) atm = 0.03 atm

The pressure increases by 0.03 atm.

This makes sense. The temperature increases by 10 parts in 300 or 3 parts in 100 (3 %). So the pressure should increase by about 3 % (0.03 atm).
