A sample of helium had a volume of 3.20x102 mL at STP. What will be it’s new volume of the temperature is increased to 425.0k and it pressure is increased to 3.50 atm?

Respuesta :

The new volume of the sample of helium gas as its temperature and pressure increases to the given values is 1.40×10²mL.

Combined gas law

Combined gas law put together both Boyle's Law, Charles's Law, and Gay-Lussac's Law. It states that "the ratio of the product of volume and pressure and the absolute temperature of a gas is equal to a constant.

It is expressed as;

P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂

Given the data in the question;

  • Initial volume of helium gas V₁ = 3.20 × 10²mL = 0.32L

At standard remperature and pressure

  • Initial pressure P₁ = 1.0atm
  • Initial temperature T₁ = 273.15K

  • Final pressure P₂ = 3.50atm
  • Final temperature T₂ = 425.0K
  • Final volume V₂ = ?

To calculate the new volume of the helium gas, we subtsitute our given values into the expression above.

P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂

P₁V₁T₂ = P₂V₂T₁

V₂ = P₁V₁T₂ / P₂T₁

V₂ = ( 1.0atm × 0.32L × 425.0K ) / ( 3.50atm × 273.15K )

V₂ = 136LatmK / 956.025atmK

V₂ = 0.14L

V₂ = 1.40×10²mL

Therefore, the new volume of the sample of helium gas as its temperature and pressure increases to the given values is 1.40×10²mL.
