At the Sprite bottling plant where the temperature is at 235K, each bottle can hold 3.80 atm of pressurized carbon dioxide gas (to make the soda fizzy). At room temperature 298K what is the new pressure?

P2 = 4.76 atm

Explanation:

Given:

T1 = 235K. P1 = 3.80 atm

T2 = 298K. P2 = ?

Here, we use Gay-Lussac's law:

P1/T1 = P2/T2

Solving for P2, we get

P2 = (T2/T1)P1

= (298K/238K)(3.80 atm)

= 4.76 atm
