A rigid cylinder of gas shows a pressure of 600 torr at 215 K. the cylinder is moved to a new storage site where the pressure within the cylinder is now measuring 750 torr. what is the new temperature? show the work.

268.75 K

Explanation:

We are given;

We are required to determine the new temperature, T2.

To solve this question we are going to use the pressure law of gases.

According to pressure law, the temperature of a fixed mass of a gas and its pressure are directly proportional at constant volume.

That is;

Pα T

Therefore;

Thus,

Therefore, the new temperature is 268.75 K
