The temperature of an ideal gas in a 5.00 L container originally at 1 atm pressure and 25
I habitually change all temps to K and all volumes to L and all
pressures to atm, b/c I had a professor that insisted on it when
dealing with the ideal gas law. Also, P=Pressure, P1=initial
pressure, P2 =final pressure; V=Volume and T=Temperature - the
follow the same rules as P1 and P2.
25C to 220K, pressure changes to .738atm. (initial pressure/initial
temp=final pressure/final temp), so 1atm/298.15K=P/220K, therefore
(1atm*220K/298.15K=P), solving for P leaves .738 atm.
