Answer:
1429.32 mmHg
Explanation:
Initial Pressure P1 = 3000.0mmHg
Initial Temperature T1 = 500.0°C + 273 = 573 K ( Converting to kelvin temperature)
Final Temperature T2 = 0.00°C + 273 = 273 K ( Converting to kelvin temperature)
Final Pressure P2 = ?
The pressure of a given amount of gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature provided volume remains constant.
This is given by the mathematical expression;
P1 / T1 = P2 / T2
Inserting the values;
3000 / 573 = P2 / 273
P2 = 273 * 3000 / 573
P2 = 1429.32 mmHg
