hydrogen gas was cooled from 150c to 50c. its new volume is 75.0 ml. what was its original volume

Verified Answer :

From the information given, the hydrogen gas was cooled from a temperature of 150 °C to 50 °C. The final volume of the gas after being cooled came to 75ml.

To find out its original volume, we need to apply Charles law which is expressed as : V1 /T1 = V2 /T2

Where V1 is original volume
Where T1 is original temperature
Where V2 is the final volume
Where T2 is the final temperature.

We need V1 so V1 = (V2 × T1) ÷ T2

V1 = (75 × 150) ÷ 50

V1 = 225 ml

Original volume of the gas was 225 ml
