Chapter 11, Problem 2SC

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The volume of a sample of gas at given temperature is to be identified in litres $\left(\text{L}\right)$

Concept introduction:

According to Charle’s Law, the volume of an ideal gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature, when the pressure and number of moles is constant.

This can be expressed as:

$\frac{{\text{V}}_{\text{1}}}{{\text{T}}_{\text{1}}}\text{ = }\frac{{\text{V}}_{\text{2}}}{{\text{T}}_{\text{2}}}$

Where, ${\text{T}}_{\text{1}}$ and ${\text{V}}_{\text{1}}$ are the initial temperature and volume and ${\text{T}}_{\text{2}}{\text{ and V}}_{\text{2}}$ are the final temperature and volume of the gas.
