To solve this problem, we can use the ideal gas law equation:
PV = nRT
Where: P = pressure (constant) V = volume n = number of moles of gas (constant) R = ideal gas constant T = temperature
Since the pressure remains constant, we can rewrite the equation as:
V1/T1 = V2/T2
Where: V1 = initial volume T1 = initial temperature V2 = final volume T2 = final temperature
Given: V1 = 12.2 L T1 = 298 K V2 = 17.4 L
We can rearrange the equation to solve for T2:
T2 = (V2 * T1) / V1
Substituting the given values:
T2 = (17.4 L * 298 K) / 12.2 L
T2 ≈ 424.59 K
Therefore, the final temperature is approximately 424.59 K.
