Answer: The temperature to which the gas in the syringe must be heated is 720.5 K
Explanation:
To calculate the volume when temperature and pressure has changed, we use the equation given by combined gas law.
The equation follows:
[tex]\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}[/tex]
where,
[tex]P_1,V_1\text{ and }T_1[/tex] are the initial pressure, volume and temperature of the gas
[tex]P_2,V_2\text{ and }T_2[/tex] are the final pressure, volume and temperature of the gas
We are given:
[tex]P_1=1.88atm\\V_1=285mL\\T_1=355K\\P_2=2.50atm\\V_2=435mL\\T_2=?K[/tex]
Putting values in above equation, we get:
[tex]\frac{1.88atm\times 285mL}{355K}=\frac{2.50atm\times 435mL}{T_2}\\\\T_2=\frac{2.50\times 435\times 355}{1.88\times 285}=720.5K[/tex]
Hence, the temperature to which the gas in the syringe must be heated is 720.5 K
