A gas is at 5 Kelvin and 1 m3. The temperature is raised to 10 Kelvin. What is the new volume?


2 m3

2 m

5 m

Verified Answer :

I think that this answer is 2m!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer:

The new volume of the gas is 2 m³

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial temperature, \(T_1=5\ K\)

Initial volume, \(V_1=1\ m^3\)            

Final temperature, \(T_2=10\ K\)

We need to find the new volume. The Charles law gives the relation between the temperature and the volume of the gas.    

i.e

\(V\propto T\)

\(\dfrac{V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}\)

\(V_2=\dfrac{V_1}{T_1}\times T_2\)

\(V_2=\dfrac{1}{5}\times 10\)

\(V_2=2\ m^3\)

So, the new volume of the gas is 2 m³. Hence, this is the required solution.
