WAEC 2001
The volume of an ideal gas at a pressure of 77cmHg and temperature 60oC is 24cm3. If the temperature and pressure are increased to 98oC
and 81cmhg respectively, calculate the new volume of the gas
- A. 411.5cm3
- B. 267.1cm3
- C. 254.2cm3
- D. 112.7cm3
Correct Answer: C. 254.2cm3
Explanation
V2 = \(\frac{P_1V_1T_2}{P_2T_1} = \frac{77 \times 240 \times 371}{81 \times 333}\)
= 254.2cm3
