Can someone solve this please

Question

An ideal gas in a sealed container has an initial volume of 2.60 L. At constant pressure, it is cooled to 17.00 ∘C, where its final volume is 1.75 L. What was the initial temperature? 𝑇1= ∘C

Answer 1

YOU can solve it!

This is an ideal gas and the pressure is not changing. Therefore we can utilize the relationship between volume and temperature using the mathematical formula P₁ / T₁ = P₂ / T₂

**Before starting, be sure to convert each temperature in Kelvin before plugging it in o the equation!! K = C + 273**

If the algebra is daunting, I'll rearrange the formula for you here so all you have to do is "plug and chug"

T₁ = (P₁ x T₂) / P₂
