423.3 mL of gas is at 49.2 C. It is compressed to a volume of 79 mL. What is the new temperture. Express your answer in Kelvin.

60.1K

Explanation:

Initial volume of gas V1 = 423.3mL

Initial temperature T1 = 49.2°C

Convert temperature in Celsius to Kelvin

( 49.2°C + 273 = 322.2K)

Final temperature T2 = ?

Final volume V2 = 79mL

According to Charle's law, the volume of a fixed mass of a gas is directly proportional to the temperature.

Mathematically, Charles' Law is expressed as: V1/T1 = V2/T2

423.3mL/322.2 = 79mL/T2

To get the value of T2, cross multiply

423.3mL x T2 = 322.2K x 79mL

423.3mL x T2 = 25453.8

T2 = (25453.8/423.3mL)

T2 = 60.1K

Thus, the new temperature of the gas is 60.1K
