Question

it is a hot summer day (40.0 degrees C = 104.0 degrees F), and you have left a can of hairspray outside so the gas within it is now at the same temperature of its surroundings. As part of your chemistry lab class, you have to build a safe and effective potato gun to share with the local elementary school, and you must be sure that the combustion chamber is well insulated and will not harm (burn) the shooter. You spray the warm hairspray into the 3.50 L chamber on your gun. You seal the cap, then ignite it, and the resulting gas expands to 13.0 L as the potato is shot out. The final Temp is?

Answer 1

V1/T1 =V2/T2

Answer 2

this is the formula you need to use

Answer 3

V1 - initial volume
V2 - final
T1 - initial temperature
T2 - final

Answer 4

u r given initial T and V and also u r given final V
and need to find final T

Answer 5

do u get it?

Answer 6

don't forget to convert Celsius to Kelvin

Answer 7

that will be by adding 273 to Celsius value

Answer 8

at the end you'll get answer in Kelvin, so if u need it to be in Celsius then just subtract 273 from the value you get
