Solution

The correct option is A 55.9 mL N2
P1=736 mm Hg
P2=736 mm Hg
V1=50.0 mL
V2=?
T1=25°C+273=298 K
T2=25°C+35°C+273=333 K
Since the pressure is constant, by Charle's law,(The volume of the gas is directly proportional to temperature at constant pressure)
V1T1=V2T2
or V2=V1×T2T1
Substituting the given values in the above equation, we get
V2=50×333298=55.86 mL N2.
