For many purposes we can treat butane C4H10 as an ideal gas at temperatures above its boiling point of −1.°C. Suppose the pressure on a 9.0m3 sample of butane gas at 46.0°C is tripled. Is it possible to change the temperature of the butane at the same time such that the volume of the gas doesn't change? yes No If you answered yes, calculate the new temperature of the gas. Round your answer to the nearest °C. °C
