Gas Review Problem #3
3) A quantity of gas has a
volume of 120 dm3 when confined under a pressure of 93.3 kPa at a
temperature of 20oC. At what pressure will the volume of the
gas be 30 dm3 at 20oC?
Write given information:
- V1 = 120
dm3
V2 = 30 dm3
- T1 = 20
oC
+ 273 = 293 K
T2 = 20 oC
+ 273 = 293 K
- P1 = 93.3
kPa
P2 = _________
Write equation:
Temperature is
constant...cancel it out from equation:
Substitute into
equation:
Solve for P2:
P2 = 373.2
kPa
