a quantity of ideal gas was confined in a container whose volume was fixed at 0.05 liter. The initial pressure and temp we 0.0036 x 10^-2 newton per square meter and 50x10^7K. If the temp was changed to 40x10^4 k, find the total pressure. Start by solving for P2

For a fixed volume use P2/T2 = P1/T1  where the P's are pressures and the T's are absolute temperatures.

 

P2 = P1*T2/T1

 

P2 = 0.0036*10^-2*40*10^4/(50*10^7) N/m^2

 

You can do the number crunching.
