A rigid ball that contained 25.0 liters of air at 22°C and 6.25 atm pressure was placed in an oven at a temperature of What was the new pressure inside the ball
To determine the new pressure inside the ball, we can use the ideal gas equation:
PV = nRT
Where:
P = pressure
V = volume
n = number of moles
R = ideal gas constant
T = temperature
Given:
Initial volume, V1 = 25.0 liters
Initial temperature, T1 = 22°C = 295 K
Initial pressure, P1 = 6.25 atm
To find the new pressure, let's assume T2 as the final temperature and P2 as the final pressure.
We can rewrite the ideal gas equation as follows for the initial and final states:
P1V1 = nRT1 ---(1)
P2V1 = nRT2 ---(2)
Since the number of moles (n) and the volume (V1) remain constant in this case, we can divide equations (2) by (1) to eliminate n and V1:
(P2V1) / (P1V1) = (nRT2) / (nRT1)
Simplifying the equation:
P2 / P1 = T2 / T1
Now, let's substitute the given values to find the new pressure (P2):
P2 = (T2 / T1) * P1
Please provide the temperature at which the ball was placed in the oven (T2), and I will calculate the new pressure (P2) for you.
To find the new pressure inside the ball, we can use the ideal gas law equation, which states:
PV = nRT
Where:
P = Pressure
V = Volume
n = Number of moles of gas
R = Ideal gas constant
T = Temperature
We'll need to know the number of moles of gas (n) and the new temperature (T) to solve for the new pressure (P).
First, let's calculate the initial number of moles of gas using the ideal gas law equation:
PV = nRT
Rearranging the equation, we get:
n = PV / RT
Given:
Initial volume (V) = 25.0 liters
Initial pressure (P) = 6.25 atm
Initial temperature (T) = 22°C = 295.15 K (converting Celsius to Kelvin)
The ideal gas constant (R) is approximately 0.0821 L•atm/(mol•K).
Now, let's calculate the initial number of moles (n):
n = (6.25 atm * 25.0 L) / (0.0821 L•atm/(mol•K) * 295.15 K)
n = 6.25 * 25.0 / (0.0821 * 295.15) mol
n ≈ 0.839 mol
Now that we have the number of moles of gas, let's assume the new temperature (T) inside the oven is given to us, then we can use the ideal gas law equation to calculate the new pressure (P):
PV = nRT
Rearranging the equation, we get:
P = (nRT) / V
Given:
Initial number of moles (n) ≈ 0.839 mol
Initial volume (V) = 25.0 liters
New temperature (T) = Temperature in the oven (given)
Simply plug in the known values to find the new pressure (P).
You didn't finish the oven temperature.
Use (P1/T1)=(P2/T2)
Don't forget to convert T to Kelvin.
