Question

Consider a gas of n moles at a pressure of P and a temperature of T in Celsius, what would be its volume?

• A. nR(T + 273)/p
• B. nRT/p
• C. nR(T - 273)/p
• D. R(T + 273)/p

Answer 1

Answer:

A. nR(T + 273)/p

The ideal gas equation is given NY PV = not where p is pressure is the volume and is the number of moles are is universal gas constant and T is a temperature in Kelvin. So by arranging, we V = nR(T + 273)/p, as T is in Celcius, we need to add 273.
