c.
To calculate the new pressure.
c.
Answer to Problem 44PPS
The new pressure is 1.82 atmospheres
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Initial volume is 8 liters, initial temperature is 275 kelvin and initial pressure is 1.25 atmospheres. New volume is 6 liters new temperature is 300 kelvin.
Calculation:
For the initial values
Therefore,
The new pressure is 1.82 atmospheres
