The pressure in a car tire is 298 kilopascals at 300 Kelvin. After a long drive, the pressure becomes 325 kilopascals. Which law will you use to calculate the new temperature in the tire assuming that the volume is constant?

Verified Answer :

Answer: Gay lussac's law and final temperature is 327K.

Explanation: Gay-Lussac's Law: This law states that pressure is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant volume and number of moles.

\(P\propto T\)     (At constant volume and number of moles)

\(\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}\)

\(\frac{298kPa}{300K}=\frac{325kPa}{T_2}\)

\(T_2=327K\)
