Answer:
The new temperature is 829.5 K
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
The initial pressure of neon = 786 mmHg
The final pressure of neon = 1811 mmHg
The initial temperature = 87 °C
Step 2: Calculate the new temperature
P1/T1 = P2/T2
⇒P1 = the initial pressure = 786 mmHg = 1.03421 atm
⇒T1 = the initial temperature = 87 °C = 360 K
⇒P2 = the final pressure = 1811 mmHg = 2.382895 atm
⇒T2 = the final temperature = ?
1.03421 atm / 360 K = 2.382895 atm / T2
T2 = 829.5 K
786/360 = 1811 / T2
The new temperature is 829.5 K
