A gas has a volume of 1,400 milliliters at a temperature of 20. K and a pressure of 1.0 atm. What will be the new volume when the temperature is changed to 40. K and the pressure is changed to 0.50 atm

Answer : The new volume of will be, 5600 mL

Explanation :

To calculate the volume when temperature and pressure has changed, we use the equation given by combined gas law.

The equation follows:

where,

are the initial pressure, volume and temperature of the gas

are the final pressure, volume and temperature of the gas

We are given:

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get:

Therefore, the new volume of will be, 5600 mL

the density of gold = 19.3 g/cm3

the relation between density and mass and volume is

density = mass / volume

given :

mass of gold = 13 g

density = 13g / volume = 19.3

volume = 13 /19.3 = 0.67 cm^3

thus volume of gold nugget = 0.67 cm^3
