Answer #1

According to Charles Law, the volume of a certain amount of a gas at constant pressure is directly proportional to the Kelvin Temperature.

Therefore,

V1/T1 = V2/T2 …………………….(1)

Where, V1 is the initial volume at temperature T1

V2 is the final volume at temperature T2

Here, V1 = 2.3 L, T1 = ?

V2 = 1.75 L , T2 = 273 + 20 = 293 K

Using relation (1)

2.3/T1 = 1.75/293

=> T1 = 385.09 K

Therefore, T1 = 385.09 – 273 = 112.09 0C
