Using
Explanation:
P = pressure
V = volume in liters
n = moles
R = the universal gas constant, which is different depending on the unit of pressure
T = temperature in Kelvin
So for this question
P = 3.24 atm
V = 9.31 L
n = .938
R = .0821
(3.24)(9.31) = (.938)(.0821)(T)
30.16 = 0.077T
T = 391.7 K
To convert Kelvin to Celsius, subtract 273.
391.7 - 273 = 118.7 C
