If a sample of oxygen gas originally at from 171.4 K has its temperature increased to 288.4 K and
the new volume was 1.6 L, what was the original volume of the sample of oxygen gas?

V₂ = 0.95 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial temperature of gas = 171.4 K

Final temperature of gas = 288.4 K

Final volume = 1.6 L

Initial volume = ?

Solution:

The given problem will be solve through the Charles Law.

According to this law, The volume of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant number of moles and pressure.

Mathematical expression:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₁ = Initial volume

T₁ = Initial temperature

V₂ = Final volume  

T₂ = Final temperature

Now we will put the values in formula.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₁ = V₂T₁ /T₂

V₂ = 1.6 L × 171.4 K / 288.4 k

V₂ = 274.24 L.K / 288.4 K

V₂ = 0.95 L

b) mutualism

hope this : )
