The pressure exerted by a gas in sealed container is 100kPa at 17^oC. It was found that the container might leak if the internal pressure exceeds 120kPa. Assuming constant volume, at what temperature in ^oC will the container start to leak?

Open in App

Solution

P1=100kPa
P2=120 kPa
T=17^oC = 290K

we know that at constant volume..
p₁/T₁ = p₂/T₂
or
T₂ = T₁ x p₂/p₁
T₂ = 290 x 120/100 = 348 K = 75^oC
