At 300 K, the given amount of fluorine gas has a volume of 30.0 L . What will be the temperature if the gas
occupies a volume of 25 L at constant pressure?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Use the Charles' law. It states that under constant pressure, an ideal gas' volume is proportional 
to its absolute temperature. The volume of a gas at constant pressure increases linearly with 
the absolute temperature of the gas. The formula he created was 

     = ,


where T denotes absolute temperature (in Kelvins).


In your case,   = .


From the proportion,   =  = 250 K.    ANSWER

Solved and thoroughly explained.
