Answer:
1.79°C
Explanation:
Applying,
PV/T = P'V'/T'................. Equation 1
Where P = Initial presssure, V = Initial volume, T = Initial temperature, P' = Final pressure, V' = Final volume, T' = Final Temperature.
make T' the subject of the equation
T' = P'V'T/PV................ Equation 2
From the question,
Given: P = 760 mmHg (Standard pressure), T = 273 K (Standard temperature), V = 62.65 L, P' = 612 mmHg, V' = 78.31
Substitute these values into equation 2
T' = (612×78.31×273)/(760×62.65)
T' = 274.79 K
T' = (274.79-273) °C
T' = 1.79°C
