I agree with your answer! Quick note: You use degrees Celsius, which may be related to the units of R you used to calculate your answer. It's not wrong in this case, but just be careful with temperature units whenever you're dealing with gases because often you need to work in Kelvin instead.

OpenStudy (marmar10):

yeah the question wanted an answer in Celsius

OpenStudy (marmar10):

OpenStudy (marmar10):
