A plastic 2L soda bottle is flexible enough that the volume of the bottle can change even without opening it. If you have an empty soda bottle (volume of 2.0L) at room temperature (25°), what will the new volume be if you put it in your freezer (-4.0°C)?

Respuesta :

Answer:  The new volume be if you put it in your freezer is 1.8 L

Explanation:

To calculate the final temperature of the system, we use the equation given by Charles' Law. This law states that volume of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

[tex]\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}[/tex]

where,

[tex]V_1\text{ and }T_1[/tex] are the initial volume and temperature of the gas.

[tex]V_2\text{ and }T_2[/tex] are the final volume and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

[tex]V_1=2L\\T_1=25^oC=(25+273)K=298K\\V_2=?\\T_2=-4.0^oC=((-4)+273)K=269K[/tex]

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]\frac{2}{298}=\frac{V_2}{269}\\\\V_2=1.8L[/tex]

The new volume be if you put it in your freezer is 1.8 L
