Question

Can I get help with this, please!!

Answer 1

Pressure in the submarine when the temperature is changed to 293 K is 108.9 K Pa

Explanation:

Pressure in the submarine = 108.9 kPa

Volume, V = 2.4 * 10^5 L

Pressure, P = 116k Pa

Temperature, T = 312 K

Ideal gas law: PV = nRT  or  n = PV / RT

So, moles of gas, n =116 KPa * 2.4 * 10 ^5L / 8.314 LK Pa K^-1 *312 K

= 1.073 *10^4 mol

when temperature is changed to 293K,

PV = nRT  or P = nRT / V

=1.073 *10^4 mol *8.314 LK Pa mol^-1 K^-1 *293 K / 2.4*10^5L

=108.9 K Pa

Pressure in the submarine when the temperature is changed to 293 K is 108.9 K Pa
