The image outlines a problem involving the Combined Gas Law, given by the equation:

$\frac{P_1 V_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2 V_2}{T_2}$

where:

• $P$ = Pressure
• $V$ = Volume
• $T$ = Temperature (in Kelvin)

Given Data

1. Initial Volume ($V_1$) = 5.14 mL
2. Initial Temperature ($T_1$) = 24.5°C, which is converted to Kelvin by adding 273:
   $T_1 = 24.5 + 273 = 297.5 \, K$
3. Initial Pressure ($P_1$) = 101.5 kPa
4. Final Temperature ($T_2$) = 35°C, converted to Kelvin:
   $T_2 = 35 + 273 = 308 \, K$
5. Final Pressure ($P_2$) = 102.5 kPa

Task

We are solving for the final volume, $V_2$, using the rearranged form of the Combined Gas Law: $V_2 = \frac{P_1 V_1 T_2}{T_1 P_2}$

Solution

Let's substitute the values into the equation to solve for $V_2$.

1. Substitute values: $V_2 = \frac{(101.5 \, \text{kPa}) \times (5.14 \, \text{mL}) \times (308 \, \text{K})}{(297.5 \, \text{K}) \times (102.5 \, \text{kPa})}$

2. Calculate $V_2$.
