Accepted Answer

$$T_C = T - 273.15$$

Question 7

A spray can contains a gas at $$202\ \mathrm{kPa}$$ and $$22\ ^\circ\mathrm{C} in a$$ $$125.00\ \mathrm{cm}^3$$ can. If the can is heated to $$195\ ^\circ\mathrm{C}$$, what is the final pressure, assuming the volume does not change?

Accepted Answer

$$320\ \mathrm{kPa}$$

Question 8

Which of the following best explains why ice floats on water?

Accepted Answer

Ice is less dense than liquid water due to the molecular structure of water near $$0\ ^\circ\mathrm{C}.$$

Question 9

Accepted Answer

$$PV = Nk_B T$$
