Q.
At 25∘C and 760mmHg pressure a gas occupies 600mL volume. What will be its pressure at a height where temperature is 10∘C and volume of the gas is 640mL?
P1=760 mm Hg, V1=600mL T1=25+273=298K V2=640 mL and T2=10+273=283K
According to combined gas law, T1P1V1=T2P2V2 ⇒P2=T1V2P1V1T2 ⇒P2=(640mL)×(298K)760(mmHg)×(600mL)×(283K) =676.6 mm Hg
