An ideal gas is initially at a temperature of 300 K.Its volume triples while its pressure decreases by a factor of two.What is its final temperature?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The final temperature can be found using the combined gas law, which is $P_1V_1/T_1 = P_2V_2/T_2$. Given that $V_2 = 3V_1$ and $P_2 = P_1/2$, we can substitute these values into the equation and solve for $T_2$, which gives us $T_2 = 3T_1/2 = 450 K$.
