The volume of a certain quantity of nitrogen at 0 ºC is 10 L. Determine, if the pressure does not vary, what the volume will be at -20 ºC. What would happen if instead of N2 the gas was hydrogen?

Respuesta :

From the calculations, the volume of the gas is obtained as 9.3 L

What is the gas laws?

The gas laws show the relationship between the volume, pressure, temperature and the number of moles of a gas.

Given that;

V1 = 10 L

T1 =  0 ºC + 273 = 273 K

V2 = ?

T2 =  -20 ºC + 273 = 253 K

It then follows that;

V1/T1 = V2/T2

V1T2 = V2T1

V2 = V1T2/T1

V2 = 10 L * 253 K/273 K

V2 = 9.3 L

If the gas were to be hydrogen, the volume of the gas will decrease even further,
