if 30.0L of oxygen are cooled from 200 degrees celsius to 1 degree celsius at constant pressure, what is the new volume of oxygen?

Answer: 18.65L

Explanation:

Given that,

Original volume of oxygen (V1) = 30.0L

Original temperature of oxygen (T1) = 200°C

[Convert temperature in Celsius to Kelvin by adding 273.

So, (200°C + 273 = 473K) ]

New volume of oxygen V2 = ?

New temperature of oxygen T2 = 1°C

(1°C + 273 = 274K)

Since volume and temperature are given while pressure is held constant, apply the formula for Charle's law

V1/T1 = V2/T2

30.0L/473K = V2/294K

To get the value of V2, cross multiply

30.0L x 294K = 473K x V2

8820L•K = 473K•V2

Divide both sides by 473K

8820L•K / 473K = 473K•V2/473K

18.65L = V2

Thus, the new volume of oxygen is 18.65 liters.
