Answer:
T₁ = P₁V₁T₂ / P₂V₂
Explanation:
The combine gas equation is given by:
P₁V₁ / T₁ = P₂V₂ / T₂
Where:
P₁ => is the initial pressure
V₁ => is the initial volume
T₁ => is the initial temperature
P₂ => is the final pressure
V₂ => is the final volume
T₂ => is the final temperature
Finally, we shall make T₁ the subject of the above expression. This can be obtained as follow:
P₁V₁ / T₁ = P₂V₂ / T₂
Cross multiply
T₁P₂V₂ = P₁V₁T₂
Divide both side by P₂V₂
T₁ = P₁V₁T₂ / P₂V₂
Thus, the formula for T₁ is:
T₁ = P₁V₁T₂ / P₂V₂
