Answer:
20.446cm3
Explanation:
The following were obtained from the question given:
V1 (initial volume) = 24.568 cm3
T1 (initial temperature) = 25°C = 25 + 273 = 298K
T2 (final temperature) = - 25°C = - 25 + 273 = 248K
V2 (final volume) = ?
Since the pressure is constant, the gas is obeying Charles' law. With the Charles' law equation V1/T1 = V2/T2, we can easily calculate the final volume as follow:
V1/T1 = V2/T2
24.568/298 = V2/248
Cross multiply to express in linear form as shown below:
298 x V2 = 24.568 x 248
Divide both side by 298
V2 = (24.568 x 248) /298
V2 = 20.446cm3
From the calculations made above, the volume of the gas at -25°C is 20.446cm3
