Given that we know the relation between volume, pressure and temperature (given for the ideal gas), we want to find the change in pressure associated to the given change in volume and temperature.
We will see that the pressure after the change is 15 atm.
Let's see how to solve this problem:
So we start by knowing that the volume depends directly on the temperature and inversely on the pressure, then the relation is something like:
V = k*(T/P)
Where k is a constant.
We know that a cylinder of 50lt is at a temperature of 200K and with a pressure of 6 atm, replacing that in the above equation we get:
50lt = k*(200K/6atm)
With this we can find the value of k:
50lt*(6atm/200K) = k = 1.5 lt*atm/K
Then the equation is just:
V = (1.5 lt*atm/K)*(T/P)
Now the problem says that the volume is 25lt and the temperature is 250K, replacing that in the equation we get:
25lt = (1.5 lt*atm/K)*(250K/P)
Solving for P we have:
P = (1.5 lt*atm/K)*(250K/25lt) = 15atm
Concluding, the pressure is after the change is 15 atm
