Calculate the new pressure of a gas if the gas at 50 ˚C and 81.0 kPa is heated to 100 ˚C at a constant volume.

93.5 kPa

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Step 2: Convert the temperatures to the Kelvin scale

When working with gases, we need to consider the absolute temperature. We will convert from Celsius to Kelvin using the following expression.

K = °C + 273.15

T₁: K = 50°C + 273.15 = 323 K

T₂: K = 100°C + 275.15 = 373 K

Step 3: Calculate the final pressure of the gas

At a constant volume, we can calculate the final pressure of the gas using Gay-Lussac's law.

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

P₂ = P₁ × T₂/T₁

P₂ = 81.0 kPa × 373 K/323 K

P₂ = 93.5 kPa
