How Does Doubling Volume and Increasing Temperature Affect Gas Pressure?

AI Thread Summary
Doubling the volume of an ideal gas and increasing the temperature to 50 degrees Celsius affects its gauge pressure, which can be calculated using the Ideal Gas Law (PV = nRT). At standard temperature and pressure (STP), the initial conditions are 6.00 L at 0 degrees Celsius and 1 atm. To find the new pressure after the changes, the temperature must be converted to Kelvin, and the new volume must be considered. The Ideal Gas Law provides the necessary framework to solve for the new pressure. Understanding these relationships is essential for accurately determining gas behavior under varying conditions.

An Ideal Gas occupies a Volume of 6.00 L at STP. What is its Gauge pressure (in kPa) if the Volume is doubled and the Temperature is increased to 50.0 Degrees Celcius. I don't know where to begine as the question doesn't have a starting Temp, just that it was increased to 50 Degrees Celcius. Any help is greatly appreciated!

STP stands for standard temperature and pressure. it is 0 degrees C and 1 atm.
 
Do you have an equation for me that might help?
 
The Ideal Gas Law should cover this.

I have a really Sorry Book, I will try to find that in there. Thanks!

The Ideal Gas law says in an Ideal Gas in a closed system the following relation always holds constant,

PV = nRT

P = Pressure
V = Volume
n = number of moles
R = The gas constant
T = Temperature (KELVIN)

Hello guys this is what I tried so far. I used the UTS to calculate the force it needs when the rope tears. My idea was to make a relationship/ function that would give me the force depending on height. Yeah i couldnt find a way to solve it. I also thought about how I could use hooks law (how it was given to me in my script) with the thought of instead of having two part of a rope id have one singular rope from the middle to the top where I could find the difference in height. But the...

TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...
