Mixed Gas Law Problems Part I

1. A gas is held at a constant pressure while its volume decreases from 450 mL to 200 mL. What will the
final temperature be if the initial temperature is 25.0oC? (Express the temperature in K.)

2. The pressure on a gas is increased from 572 mm Hg to 1425 mm Hg. What will the new volume of the
gas be if the original volume was 4.5 L?

3. An 8.0 L sample of helium gas at standard pressure is allowed to expand to a new


volume
of 22.0 L. If the temperature of the gas does not change, what is the new pressure
of the gas expressed in atm?

4. A sample of a gas has a volume of 32 L and a temperature of 10 oC. If the pressure is not changed, to what
temperature must it be raised in order to double the volume? (Express the temperature in kelvins.)
