Question

On hot days, you may have noticed that potato chip bags seem to “inflate”, even though they have not been opened. If I have a 250 mL bag at a temperature of 19 0C, and I leave it in my car which has a temperature of 600 C, what will the new volume of the bag be? will give brainliest

Answer 1

The new volume of the bag : 747.43 ml

Further explanation

Charles's Law  

When the gas pressure is kept constant, the gas volume is proportional to the temperature  

$\tt \dfrac{V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}$

V₁=250 ml

T₁=19+273=292 K

T₂=600+273=873 K

$\tt V_2=\dfrac{V_1.T_2}{T_1}\\\\V_2=\dfrac{250\times 873}{292}\\\\V_2=747.43~ml$
