At what temperatures will the air have a volume of 165.0 ml and 75 ml respectively? I have included a picture of the temperatures and volumes from my experiment. We also had to create a graph of volume in ml (y-axis) versus the temperature in K (x-axis). We are to include the slope and intercept and upload the graph. Could you help me? I'm not sure if my graph is correct or not. Thank you!
This is the lab and It is not the writing assignment. please help me with this. I appreciate it. Thank you! please don't reject it!!

When you convert from g small unit to a large unit you must divieN A familiar example is converting dollars to cents. $1 = 100 cents (smaller units) To convert from dollars to cents, we multiply by 100. To convert from cents to dollars, we divide by 100. See the lab supplement for more practice in conversions. tis class you need to know the order from large to progressively smaller units (or vice-versa).
