how do i use Charles' law to solve an equation?

OpenStudy (abb0t):

Well, charles law is: \(\sf \frac{V_1}{T_1} = \frac{V_2}{T_2}\)

ya, but if i have two temperatures and one volume, how do i find the final volumes and temperatures?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you give me the problem?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

like an example

OpenStudy (anonymous):

jk two temp lets say one is 5Kelvin at 3Liter the other is 9 Kelvin so you set up the equation like 3 Liter/ 5Kelvin = x/ 9 Kelvin THEN YOU SOLVE FOR x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its like cross multiplication

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3 x 9 = 5 x (x) so 27 =5x divide 5 on both sides and x ( the Volume) would be 27/5
