Answer:
When the rider is at the top of the roller coaster.
Answer:
5.6L
Explanation:
Given parameters:
number of moles = 0.25mol
pressure on gas = 1atm
temperature = 273K
Gas constant R = 0.0821Latm/molK
Unknown:
Volume of gas = ?
Solution:
Using the ideal gas equation, we can solve this problem. The equation is a combination of the three gas laws: Boyle's law, Charles's law and Avogadro's law.
It is mathematically expressed as;
PV = nRT
where P is the pressure
V is the volume
R is the gas constant
T is the temperature
n is the number of moles
All the parameters are in the appropriate units and we simply solve for the volume of the gas;
1 x V = 0.25 x 0.0821 x 273
V = 5.6L
