A sample of helium gas has a pressure of 1.20 atm at 22.0 C. At what Celsius temperature will the helium reach a pressure of 2.00 atm?

A. 492 k
B. 219 c
C. 36.6 c
D. 309 c

36.6°C

Explanation:

Given that,

initial pressure of helium (P1) = 1.20 atm

Initial temperature (T1) = 22.0°C

Final temperature (T2) = ?

Final pressure of helium (P2) = 2.00 atm

Since pressure and temperature are given while volume is constant, apply the formula for pressure's law

P1/T1= P2/T2

1.20 atm / 22.0°C = 2.00 atm / T2

Cross multiply

1.20 atm•T2= 2.00 atm•22°C

1.20 atm•T2= 44 atm•°C

Divide both sides by 1.20 atm

1.20 atm•T2/1.20 atm = 44 atm•°C/1.20 atm

T2 = 36.6°C

explanation:

we can conclude that the melting point of table salt is above room temperature (it's actually 801 deg c). the melting point of mercury must be below room temperature (- 39 deg c).
