A gas with a volume of 535 mL at a temperature of -25C is heated to 175C. What is the new volume of the gas if pressure and number of moles are held constant?

The new volume of the gas is 966 mL

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume = 535 mL

Initial temperature = -25.0 °C

Final temperature = 175 °C

Step 2: Calculate the new volume

V1/T1 = V2/T2

⇒with V1 = the initial volume = 535 mL = 0.535 L

⇒with T1 = -25 °C = 248 K

⇒with V2 = the new volume = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with T2 = the new temperature = 175 °C = 448K

0.535 L/ 248 K = V2 / 448K

V2 = 0.966 L =966 mL

The new volume of the gas is 966 mL
