A 11 liter of an ideal gas at 27C{27^ \circ }C is heated at constant pressure to 297C{297^ \circ }C , Its final volume will be:
(A) 1111 litres
(B) 1.11.1\, litres
(C) 3.43.4 litres
(D) 1.91.9 litres

Explanation

Solution

From the constant pressure ideal gas equation, substitute the known values of the volume and the temperature to obtain the final volume of the ideal gas. The volume must be substituted in cubic centimeters and the temperature must be substituted in kelvin.

Useful formula:
The equation of the ideal gas at the constant pressure is given by
V1V2=T1T2\dfrac{{{V_1}}}{{{V_2}}} = \dfrac{{{T_1}}}{{{T_2}}}
Where V1{V_1} is the initial volume of the ideal gas, V2{V_2} is the final volume of the ideal gas, T1{T_1} is the initial temperature of the ideal gas and T2{T_2} is the final temperature of the ideal gas.

Complete step by step solution:
It is given that the
Initial volume of the ideal gas, V1=1l=1000cc{V_1} = 1\,l = 1000\,cc
Initial temperature of the ideal gas, T1=27C=300K{T_1} = {27^ \circ }\,C = 300\,K
Final temperature of the ideal gas, T2=297C=570K{T_2} = {297^ \circ }\,C = 570\,K
By using the equation of the ideal gas at the constant pressure, we get
V1V2=T1T2\dfrac{{{V_1}}}{{{V_2}}} = \dfrac{{{T_1}}}{{{T_2}}}
Substituting the initial and the final temperature and the initial volume of the ideal gas to obtain the final volume.
1000V2=300570\dfrac{{1000}}{{{V_2}}} = \dfrac{{300}}{{570}}
By grouping the known terms in one side and the unknown term in one side of the equation, we get
V2=1000×570300{V_2} = \dfrac{{1000 \times 570}}{{300}}
BY performing various arithmetic operations, we get
V2=1900cc{V_2} = 1900\,cc
By converting the cubic centimeter into the litre, we get
V2=19001000=1.9l{V_2} = \dfrac{{1900}}{{1000}} = 1.9\,l
Hence the final volume of the ideal gas is obtained as 1.91.9 litre.

Thus the option (D) is correct.

Note: The ideal gas equation is PV=mRTPV = mRT , the constant pressure equation is formed from it. For converting the litre into the cubic centimeter, multiply the volume with the thousand and for converting the Celsius into the Kelvin, add the temperature with the number 273273 .
