Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to your question is 2.32 atm

Explanation:

Data

P = ?

n = 0.214

V = 2.53 L

T = 61°C

R = 0.082 atm L/mol°K

Formula

PV = nTR

solve for P

P = nRT/V

Process

1.- Calculate the temperature in K

°K = °C + 273

°K = 61 + 273

    = 334

2.- Substitution

P = (0.214 x 0.082 x 334) / 2.53

3.- Simplification

P = 5.86/2.53

4.- Result

P = 2.32 atm
