Charles’s law states that the volume of a gas is directly related to the absolute temperature when there is no change in the pressure or amount of gas:
V1T1=V2T2

Part A
A sample of gas in a balloon has an initial temperature of 13∘C and a volume of 1430L . If the temperature changes to 69∘C , and there is no change of pressure or amount of gas, what is the new volume, V2, of the gas?
Express your answer with the appropriate units.


Part B
What Celsius temperature, T2, is required to change the volume of the gas sample in Part A (T1 = 13∘C , V1= 1430L ) to a volume of 2860L ? Assume no change in pressure or the amount of gas in the balloon.
Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Hi kbertoldo7,

Make sure you use Kelvin instead of oC when dealing with gases.
In addition, Charles's law is V1/T1 = V2/T2

Part A
1430/(13+273) = V/(69+273)
Rightwards Arrow V = 1710 L

Part B
1430/(13+273) = 2860/T
Rightwards Arrow T = 572K = 300oC

Best,
Laser
