A sample of O2 gas has a volume of 21.0 L at a pressure of 1.50 atm and a temperature of 23 degrees Celcius. What volume in liters will the gas occupy at 3.50 atm and 281 degrees Celcius? Assume ideal behavior.
Volume = ? L

P1 = 1.5atm P2 = 3.5atm
V1 = 21L V2 =
T1 = 23+273 = 296K T2 = 281+273 = 554K
P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2
V2 = P1V1T2/T1P2
= 1.5*21*554/296*3.5 = 16.84L
