The pressure in a bicycle tire is 1.34atm at 33.0 ° C. At what temperature will the pressure inside the tire be 1.60atm?
1 answer:
Answer:
92.37°C
Explanation:
Assuming the volume remains the same in both the states ( bicycle tire).
Then as per ideal gas equation
where P1, P2 are pressure at two different states and T1, T2 are temperature at these two states
Given:
P1 = 1.34 atm, T1 = 33.0 ° C = 306K
P2 = 1.60 atm, T2 = ?
1.34/306 = 1.60/T_2
⇒ T2 = 1.60×306/1.34
= T2= 365.37K= 92.37°C
