If gas in a sealed container has a pressure of 50 kPa at 300 K, what will the pressure be if the temperature rises to 360 K?
60 kPa
16 kPa
41 kPa
161 kPa
To find the new pressure, we can use the combined gas law:
(P1/T1) = (P2/T2)
Where P1 and T1 are the initial pressure and temperature, and P2 and T2 are the final pressure and temperature.
Plugging in the values:
(50 kPa / 300 K) = (P2 / 360 K)
Solving for P2:
P2 = (50 kPa / 300 K) * 360 K
= 60 kPa
Therefore, the pressure will be 60 kPa when the temperature rises to 360 K.
