Answer:
—262.71°C
Explanation:
Step 1:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Number of mole (n) = 2.4 moles
Pressure (P) = 2.70 atm
Volume (V) = 0.750 L
Temperature (T) =?
Gas constant (R) = 0.082atm.L/Kmol
Step 2:
Determination of the temperature.
Using the ideal gas equation, the temperature can be obtained as follow:
PV = nRT
2.7 x 0.750 = 2.4 x 0.082 x T
Divide both side by 2.4 x 0.082
T = (2.7 x 0.750) /(2.4 x 0.082)
T = 10.29K
Step 3:
Conversion of Kelvin temperature to celsius temperature.
Temperature (celsius) = temperature (Kelvin) - 273
temperature (Kelvin) = 10.29K
Temperature (celsius) = 10.29 - 273
Temperature (celsius) = —262.71°C
