The temperature of a gas at 1.00 atm and 8.00 °C is increased to 20.0 °C, resulting in a change of pressure.Which equation would you use to calculate the new pressure?

Question

The correct equation to use is the combined gas law, which relates pressure, volume, and temperature changes in a gas. Since the volume is not mentioned as changing, and the number of moles (n) is constant, the appropriate form simplifies to $P_1/T_1 = P_2/T_2$, which is represented by choice D. This equation allows for the calculation of the new pressure after a temperature change when the volume is constant.
