Question

A sample of gas is at 273°K and 2.00 atm with a volume of 6.00 liters. When the gas is compressed to 3.00 liters and the pressure increases to 3.00 atm, what is the new temperature of the sample?

Answer 1

Answer: 0.00488K

Explanation: using the general gas equation

(P1V1)/T1 =(P2V2)/T1

Substitute

2*6/273= 3*3/T

Simplify

T= 0.00488°K
