A sample of carbon dioxide gas at 317 K and 0.445 atm occupies a volume of 4.45 L. If the pressure of the gas is increased, while at the same time it is heated to a higher temperature, the final gas volume
a) could be larger or smaller than 4.45 L depending on the final pressure and temperature.
b) will be larger than 4.45 L.
c) will be smaller than 4.45 L.
a) could be larger or smaller than 4.45 L depending on the final pressure and temperature.
When the pressure of a gas is increased and the temperature is also increased, the volume of the gas will depend on how much the pressure and temperature are changed. The ideal gas law equation PV = nRT can be used to calculate the final volume of the gas.
