If a 1.00-l container was rated to withstand pressures up to 25.0 atm, calculate what the temperature must have been when it ruptured. the final volume of the gas at 1.00 atm and 30°c was 55.0 l

a. 394°c

b. 667°c

c. no right choice.

C. No right choice

Explanation:

Using the gas equation:

V₁ P₁/T₁ =V₂ P₂/T₂ (1)

V₁= 1.00L

P₁= 25.0 atm

T₁= ?

V₂ = 55.0L

P₂ = 1.00 atm

T₂= 30°C

  =  303°K

Making T₁ in equation (1) subject of the formula;

T₁=(V₁ P₁/V₂ P₂)x  T₂ (2)

Substituting  into equation (2), we have:

T₁ =  [(1 x 25) / (55 x 1)] x 303

   = 137.7° K

  =   -135.27 ° C

acid rain does not usually kill trees directly. instead, it is more likely to weaken the trees by damaging their leaves, limiting the nutrients available to them, or poisoning them with toxic substances slowly released from the soil. the main atmospheric pollutants that affect trees are nitrates and sulphates.
