Given that the pressure in an automobile tire is
Concept Introduction:
The final pressure of the gas at the varying temperatures can be calculated using Gay-Lussac’s law, which states the relationship between pressure and temperature of the gas.
According to Gay-Lussac’s Law, for the gas held at constant volume, the pressure of a given amount of gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas. Mathematically, it is given as.
We two different sets of temperature and pressure of the gas is considered, the above equation becomes as follows:

- 5-33 A certain quantity of helium gas is at a temperature of 27 °C and a pressure of 1.00 atm. What will the new temperature be if its volume is doubled at the same time that its pressure is decreased to one-half its original value?arrow_forward5-107 If 60.0 g of NH3 occupies 35.1 L under a pressure of 77.2 in. Hg, what is the temperature of the gas, in °C?arrow_forwardA certain flexible weather balloon contains helium gas at a volume of 855 L. Initially, the balloon is at sea level where the temperature is 25C and the barometric pressure is 730 torr. The balloon then rises to an altitude of 6000 ft, where the pressure is 605 torr and the temperature is 15C. What is the change in volume of the balloon as it ascends from sea level to 6000 ft?arrow_forward
- 5-34 A sample of 30.0 mL of krypton gas, Kr, is at 756 mm Hg and 25.0°C. What is the new volume if the pressure is decreased to 325 mm Hg and the temperature is decreased to-12.5°C?arrow_forward93 The complete combustion of octane can be used as a model for the burning of gasoline: 2C8H18+25O216CO2+18H2O Assuming that this equation provides a reasonable model of the actual combustion process, what volume of air at 1.0 atm and 25°C must be taken into an engine to burn 1 gallon of gasoline? (The partial pressure of oxygen in air is 0.21 atm and the density of liquid octane is 0.70 g/mL.)arrow_forward5-35 A 26.4-mL sample of ethylene gas, C2H4, has a pressure of 2.50 atm at 2.5°C. If the volume is increased to 36.2 mL and the temperature is raised to 10°C, what is the new pressure?arrow_forward
- Plot the data given in Table 5.3 for oxygen at 0C to obtain an accurate molar mass for O2. To do this, calculate a value of the molar mass at each of the given pressures from the ideal gas law (we will call this the apparent molar mass at this pressure). On a graph show the apparent molar mass versus the pressure and extrapolate to find the molar mass at zero pressure. Because the ideal gas law is most accurate at low pressures, this extrapolation will give an accurate value for the molar mass. What is the accurate molar mass?arrow_forwardA 275-mL sample of CO gas is collected over water at 31C and 755 mmHg. If the temperature of the gas collection apparatus rises to 39C, what is the new volume of the sample? Assume that the barometric pressure does not change.arrow_forward47 HCl(g) reacts with ammonia gas, NH3(g), to form solid ammonium chloride. If a sample of ammonia occupying 250 mL at 21 C and a pressure of 140 torr is allowed to react with excess HCl, what mass of NH4Cl will form?arrow_forward
