A closed, rigid tank is filled with a gas modeled as an ideal gas, initially at 27°C and gauge pressure of 300 kPa. The gas is heated, and the gauge pressure at the final state is 367 kPa. Determine the final temperature, in °C. The local atmospheric pressure is 1 atm.

the final temperature is 77.1 °C

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Initial temperature; T₁ = 27°C = ( 27 + 273)K = 300 K

Initial absolute pressure P₁ = 300 kPa = ( 300 + 101.325 )kPa = 401.325 kPa

Final absolute pressure P₂ = 367 kPa = ( 367 + 101.325 )kPa = 468.325 kPa

Now, to calculate the final temperature, we use the ideal gas equation;

P₁V/T₁ = P₂V/T₂

but it is mentioned that the rigid tank is closed,

so the volume is the same both before and after.

Change in volume = 0

hence;

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

we substitute

401.325 kPa / 300 K = 468.325 kPa / T₂

T₂ × 401.325 kPa  = 300 K × 468.325 kPa

T₂ = [ 300 K × 468.325 kPa ] / 401.325 kPa

T₂ = 140497.5 K / 401.325

T₂ =  350.08 K

T₂ = ( 350.08 - 273 ) °C

T₂ = 77.1 °C

Therefore, the final temperature is 77.1 °C

answer:

0.0
