In this problem, your answers should be mathematical expressions involving a variable.

Consider an ideal gas with an absolute temperature of T1
To what temperature would you need to heat the gas to double its pressure?

T2=?

I got T2=T1P times 2 but it is wrong

P2 = 2T1

T2=?

To find the temperature (T2) needed to double the pressure of the ideal gas, we can use the ideal gas law equation:

PV = nRT

Where:
P is the pressure of the gas
V is the volume of the gas
n is the number of moles of the gas
R is the ideal gas constant
T is the absolute temperature of the gas

Let's assume that the volume (V), number of moles (n), and the gas constant (R) remain constant.

If we double the pressure (P), the equation becomes:

2P * V = n * R * T2

Since V, n, and R are constant, we can simplify the equation to:

2P = T2

Therefore, to find T2, you simply multiply the original temperature (T1) by 2.

T2 = 2T1
