Temperature Conversion: K = °C + 273.15
Gas Laws
Gay-Lussac's Law: [tex]\displaystyle \frac{P_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2}{T_2}[/tex]
- P is pressure
- T is temperature (in Kelvins)
Explanation:
Step 1: Define
P₁ = 87 kPa
T₁ = 50 °C
T₂ = 25 °C
P₂ = ?
Step 2: Identify Conversions
Kelvin Temp Conversion
Step 3: Convert
T₁ - 50 °C + 273.15 = 323.15 K
T₂ - 25 °C + 273.15 = 298.15 K
Step 4: Solve for P₂
- Substitute [GLL]: [tex]\displaystyle \frac{87 \ kPa}{323.15 \ K} = \frac{P_2}{298.15 \ K}[/tex]
- Cross-multiply: [tex]\displaystyle 25939.1 \ kPa \cdot K = (323.15 \ K)P_2[/tex]
- Isolate P₂: [tex]\displaystyle \80.2694 \ kPa = P_2[/tex]
- Rewrite: [tex]\displaystyle P_2 = 80.2694 \ kPa[/tex]
Step 5: Check
We are given 1 sig fig as our lowest. Follow sig fig rules and round.
80.2694 kPa ≈ 80 kPa
