Answer:
T is increasing at a rate of 0.3045 K/min.
Step-by-step explanation:
PV = nRT
nRT = PV
(d/dt)(nRT) = (d/dt) (PV)
Since nR are constants, we have
nR (dT/dt) = P(dV/dt) + V(dP/dt)
n = 10 moles
R = 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K
P = 9 atm
V = 13 L
(dP/dt) = 0.13 atm/min
(dV/dt) = -0.16 atm/min
(dT/dt) = ?
nR (dT/dt) = P(dV/dt) + V(dP/dt)
(10)(0.0821)(dT/dt) = (9)(-0.16) + (13)(0.13)
0.821 (dT/dt) = 0.25
(dT/dt) = (0.25/0.821)
(dT/dt) = 0.3045 K/min
Hope this helps!!
