If the temperature of a gas confined to such a cylinder is raised from 287°C to 587°C, what is the ratio of the initial volume to the final volume if the pressure exerted on the gas remains constant?

    1 : 2

    Explanation:

    From the question given, we obtained the following information:

    T1 = 287°C = 287 + 273 = 560K

    T1 = 587°C = 587 + 273 = 860K

    V1 = V

    V2 = ?

    V1 / T1 = V2 / T2

    V/560 = V2/860

    Cross multiply

    V2 x 560 = 860 x V

    Divide both side by 560

    V2 = (860 x V) / 560

    V2 = 1.54V = 2V

    The ratio of initial to final volume =

    V1 : V2

    = V : 2V

    = 1 : 2
