19. A mass of gas has a volume of 4 m3, a temperature of 290 K, and an absolute pressure of 475 kPa. When the gas is allowed to

Aleks [24]

Recall this gas law:

$\frac{P₁V₁}{T₁}$ = $\frac{P₂V}{T₂}$

P₁ and P₂ are the initial and final pressures.

V₁ and V₂ are the initial and final volumes.

T₁ and T₂ are the initial and final temperatures.

Given values:

P₁ = 475kPa

V₁ = 4m³, V₂ = 6.5m³

T₁ = 290K, T₂ = 277K

Substitute the terms in the equation with the given values and solve for Pf:

$\frac{475*4}{290} = \frac{P₂*6.5}{277}$
