Oxygen gas occupies a volume of 95 ml at 305 k. what volume will it occupy at 550 k?

The new volume of the oxgen gas as the temperature is increased is 171.3ml.

Given the data in the question;

  • Initial olume of oxygen gas; [tex]V_1 = 95ml = 0.095L[/tex]
  • Intial temperature; [tex]T_1 = 305K[/tex]
  • Final temperature; [tex]T_2 = 550K[/tex]
  • Final volume of oxygen gas; [tex]V_2 = \ ?[/tex]

Charles's law

Charles's law states that "the volume occupied by a definite quantity of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature.

It is expressed as;

[tex]\frac{V_1}{T_1} = \frac{V_2}{T_2}[/tex]

To determine the new volume of the oxgen gas as the temperature is increased, we substitute our given values into the expression above.

[tex]\frac{V_1}{T_1} = \frac{V_2}{T_2}\\ \\ \frac{0.095L}{305K} = \frac{V_2}{550K}\\\\V_2 * 305K = 0.095L * 550K\\\\V_2 * 305K = 52.25LK\\\\V_2 = \frac{52.25LK}{305K} \\\\V_2 = 0.1713L\\\\V_2 = 171.3ml[/tex]

Therefore, the new volume of the oxgen gas as the temperature is increased is 171.3ml.
