Question

A glass container is sealed with a gas at $0.800$ atm pressure and at ${25}^o$C. The glass container sustain pressure of $2$ atm. Calculate the temperature to which gas can be heated before bursting the container.

• A. ${432}^o$C.
• B. ${472}^o$C.
• C. ${372}^o$C.
• D. ${572}^o$C.

Answer 1

The correct option is B ${472}^o$C.

We have,

$p_1=0.8$atm$,p_2=2$atm $T_1=298$k

Thus,

According to the Gas equation,

$\frac{p_1}{T_1}=\frac{p_2}{T_2}$

$\frac{0.8}{298}=\frac{2}{T_2}$

$T_2=745$k

$={472}^0$C

Hence, the correct option is $\text{B}$
