Answer:
The entropy and the systems surrounding it tend to increase.
Answer:
Pressure = 1.14 atm
Explanation:
Hello,
This question requires us to calculate the final pressure of the bottle after thermal equilibrium.
This is a direct application of pressure law which states that in a fixed mass of gas, the pressure of a given gas is directly proportional to its temperature, provided that volume remains constant.
Mathematically, what this implies is
P = kT k = P / T
P1 / T1 = P2 / T2 = P3 / T3 =........= Pn / Tn
P1 / T1 = P2 / T2
P1 = 1.0atm
T1 = -15°C = (-15 + 273.15)K = 258.15K
P2 = ?
T2 = 21.5°C = (21.5 + 273.15)K = 294.65K
P1 / T1 = P2 / T2
P2 = (P1 × T2) / T1
P2 = (1.0 × 294.65) / 258.15
P2 = 1.14atm
The pressure of the gas after attaining equilibrium is 1.14atm
