Gas volume at 20°C to 130°C - Need formula

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on calculating the volume of a gas at different temperatures using Charles's Law. The initial volume of the gas is 1.2 liters at 20°C, and the user seeks to determine the volume at 130°C while maintaining constant pressure. The formula derived from Charles's Law, V1/T1 = V2/T2, is essential for solving this problem. The user successfully found the formula after seeking assistance in the forum.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of gas laws, specifically Charles's Law
  • Basic knowledge of temperature scales (Celsius)
  • Ability to manipulate algebraic equations
  • Familiarity with volume measurements in liters
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the application of Charles's Law in real-world scenarios
  • Learn about the Ideal Gas Law and its relationship to Charles's Law
  • Explore temperature conversion between Celsius and Kelvin
  • Study examples of gas volume calculations under varying conditions
USEFUL FOR

Students in chemistry or physics courses, educators teaching gas laws, and anyone interested in understanding the behavior of gases under temperature changes.

1. Homework Statement

A gas occupies a volume of 1.2litres at 20°c. Determine the volume it occupies at 130°C if the pressure is kept constant.

I tried to look for the formula but i cannot find it. i am in college and we have not been taught this yet... someone help by telling me the formula.

Thanks you

You need Charles's law. Google it.
 
I tried to google it I've been tryin to solve this problem and another one for over 5 days.. please help
 
What does Charle's Law state?
 
Don't worry I've solved it, thanks a lot for the heads up.. i researched charles law and found the formula:

V/T = V1/T1
