Answer:
26.35 mmHg
Explanation:
Given data:
Initial pressure = 65.0 mmHg
Initial temperature = 740 K
Final temperature = 300 K
Final pressure = ?
Solution:
According to Gay-Lussac Law,
The pressure of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant volume and number of moles.
Mathematical relationship:
P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂
Now we will put the values in formula:
65 mmHg / 740 K = P₂/300 K
P₂ = 65 mmHg× 300 K / 740 K
P₂ = 19500 mmHg. K /740 K
P₂ = 26.35 mmHg
