Figueroa · Answer 1

The temperature in degree celsius to which the gas was heated is calculated using the Charles law formula

that is V1/T1 = V2/T2

V1=88.2 ml

T1=35 + 273 = 308 K

V2=123 ml

T2=?

by making T2 the formula of the subject T2=V2T1/V1

= (123 ml x308 k) / 88.2 ml = 429.5 K

in degree celsius = 429.5 - 273 = 156.5 degree celsius
