Question 1 • Physical Science

A gas is heated from 298 cap k to 367 cap k while its volume changes from 2 point 5 liters to 3 point 9 liters If the initial pressure of the gas is 1 point 1 atm , what is the final pressure of the gas?

Answer
A
1 point 4 atm
B
0 point 5 7 atm
C
0 point 8 7 atm
D
2 point 1 atm

Explanation

Use the combined gas law: P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂. Solving for the final pressure gives P₂ = (1.1 atm)(2.5 L)(367 K) / [(298 K)(3.9 L)] ≈ 0.87 atm. Therefore, the final pressure is 0.87 atm, choice C.
