Question 1120633: the volume V of a given mass of mass varies directly as the temperature T and inversely as the pressure P. if V=232.0 in ^3 when T=290 and P=15Ib/in^2, what is the volume when T=260 and P=20Ib/in^2?(round to the nearest tenth)
a. 116.0 in^3
b.176.0 in^3
c.146.0 In^3
d.156.0 in^3 Answer by Alan3354(69443) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! the volume V of a given mass of mass [sic] gas varies directly as the temperature T and inversely as the pressure P.
if V=232.0 in^3 when T=290 and P=15 psi, what is the volume when T=260 and P=20 psi? (round to the nearest tenth)
--------
PV = nRT --> PV = k*T
k = PV/T = 15*232/290 = 12
=================
what is the volume when T=260 and P=20 psi?
PV = 12T
20V = 12*260 = 3120
V = 156
