Behavior of Gases — Quiz

Question 4 • Physical Science

A gas has an initial volume of 2.4 L at a pressure of 1.5 atm and a temperature of 273 K. The pressure of the gas increases to 4.5 atm, and the temperature of the gas increases to 313 K. What is the final volume of the gas?

Answer
A
0 point 9 2 liters
B
8 point 3 liters
C
6 point 3 liters
D
0 point 7 0 liters

Explanation

Use the combined gas law: P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂. Solving for the final volume gives V₂ = (1.5 atm × 2.4 L × 313 K) ÷ (4.5 atm × 273 K) ≈ 0.92 L, so the correct choice is 0.92 liters.
