Determine which law is appropriate for solving the following problem.
What will be the new volume of a 250 mL sample of gas at 300 K and 1 atm if heated to 350 K at 1 atm?
Law used:

Charles Law

Explanation:

Step 1:

It is given that the original volume of the gas is 250 ml at 300 K temperature and 1 atmosphere pressure. We need to find the volume of the same gas when the temperature is 350 K and 1 atmosphere pressure.

Step 2:

We observe that the gas pressure is the same in both the cases while the temperature is different. So we need a law that explains the volume change of a gas when temperature is changed, without any change to the pressure.

Step 3:

Charles law provides the relationship between the gas volume and temperature, at a given pressure

Step 4:

Hence we conclude that Charles law can be used.

this would be about 43%
