Answer:

They are used because of preference or convenience, not necessity. These scales came about historically when there were no standards to calibrate a thermometer against. The Fahrenheit scale used the temperature of the coldest thing then known for its zero, which was salty ice.13-Oct-2019

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

The new volume of the gas is 21 L.

Explanation:

Volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure at constant temperature such that,

$V\propto \dfrac{1}{P}$

or

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

We have,

$V_1=45\ L\\\\P_1=140\ kPa \\\\P_2=300\ kPa$

It is required to find V₂. Using above law or Boyle's law such that :

$V_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{P_2}\\\\V_2=\dfrac{140\times 45}{300}\\\\V_2=21\ L$

So, the new volume of the gas is 21 L.
