Answer:
A sample of an ideal gas has a volume of 2.21 L at 279 K and 1.01 atm. Calculate the pressure when the volume is 1.23 L and the temperature is 299 K.
You need to apply the ideal gas law PV=nRT
You have the pressure, P=1.01 atm
you have the volume, V = 2.21 L
The ideal gas constant R= 0.08205 L. atm/ mole.K at 273 K
find n = PV/RT = (1.01 atm x 2.21 L / 0.08205 L.atm/ mole.K x 273 K)
n= 0.1 mole, Now find the pressure for n=0.1 mole, T= 299K and
L=1.23 L
P=nRT/V= 0.1mole x 0.08205 (L.atm/ mole.K x 299 k)/ 1.23 L
= 1.994 atm
