A cylinder with a movable piston contains a fixed amount of gas at a constant pressure. Initially, the cylinder contains 0.25 liters of air at 0 degrees Celsius. When the temperature is increased to 35 degrees Celsius, the air will occupy what volume?

0.28 L

0.88 L

8.75 L

35.25 L

Answer 1

first convert both temperatures to Kelvin

then use the formula

V1/T1 = V2/T2 where V1 = initial volume, T1 = initial temperature, T2 = final temperature, and V2 = final volume

solve for V2

Answer 2

0.28 L
