Question

At what temperature would 0.500 moles of gas particles stored in a 100.0 mL container reach a pressure of 15.0 atm?

36500 K
7.96 K
79.6 K
3.60 K

Answer 1

PV = nRT

where P = pressure, V = volume, n = moles, R = gas constant, and T = temperature

Answer 2

in your case:

P = 15.0 atm
V = 0.100 L
n = 0.500 moles
R = 0.0821 (this is the gas constant for L atm mol)

Answer 3

plug these into the equation and solve for T

Answer 4

is it c ? @Vocaloid

Answer 5

C

Answer 6

hold on a sec let me get a calculator

Answer 7

okay @Vocaloid

Answer 8

can you show me how you got 79.6?

Answer 9

is my answer wrong?

Answer 10

not necessarily, it's just that I got a different answer on my calculator

Answer 11

I get 36.5K when I plug it in :/

Answer 12

can you show me the calculations you did?

Answer 13

let me redo my math hold on 1 sec.

Answer 14

i forgot to plug in " n "

Answer 15

but i got 36500 K not 36.5

Answer 16

hm

I did

(15) * (0.1) divided by (0.5)*0.0821

what did you do?

Answer 17

your answer sounds more realistic though
