Answer:
A. P₂ / P₁ = 2
B. P₂ / P₁ = 1.1
Explanation:
A. Determination of the ratio P₂/P₁
Volume = constant
Initial temperature (T₁) = 46 K
Final temperature (T₂) = 92 K
Final pressure /Initial pressure (P₂/P₁) =?
P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂
P₁/46 = P₂/92
Cross multiply
46 × P₂ = P₁ × 92
Divide both side by P₁
46 × P₂ / P₁ = 92
Divide both side by 46
P₂ / P₁ = 92 / 46
P₂ / P₁ = 2
B. Determination of the ratio P₂/P₁
Volume = constant
Initial temperature (T₁) = 35.4 °C = 35.4 + 273 = 308.4 K
Final temperature (T₂) = 69.0 °C = 69 + 273 = 342 K
Final pressure /Initial pressure (P₂/P₁) =?
P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂
P₁/308.4 = P₂/342
Cross multiply
308.4 × P₂ = P₁ × 342
Divide both side by P₁
308.4 × P₂ / P₁ = 342
Divide both side by 308.4
P₂ / P₁ = 342 / 308.4
P₂ / P₁ = 1.1
