Expert Solution
Step 1: Determine the given variables

Q. Given 

V= 2 L ( Initial Volume of gas sample)

P1 = 1.5 atm ( Initial pressure of gas sample) 

P= 3.0 atm (Final pressure of gas sample)

T1= 25o C = 298.15 K (Initial temperature of gas sample)

T2= 323C = 596.15 K (Final temperature of gas sample)

Here in this question we have to calculate the final volume of a 2.0 L gas sample if its pressure was changed from 1.5 atmospheres to 3.0 atmospheres and its temperature was changed from 25oC to 323oC

Here we use the concept of combined gas law 

Combined gas law - It states that the ratio between the product of pressure-volume and temperature of a system remains constant.

Formula used :-

fraction numerator straight P subscript 1 cross times straight V subscript 1 over denominator straight T subscript 1 end fraction equals fraction numerator straight P subscript 2 cross times straight V subscript 2 over denominator straight T subscript 2 end fraction minus negative negative negative negative negative 1

  • Here P1 stands for initial pressure (atm)
  • Pstands for final pressure (atm)
  • V1 stands for initial volume (L)
  • Vstands for final volume (L)
  • T1 stands for initial temperature (K)
  • T2 stands for final temperature (K)
