QJEEM22Ch259d: JEE Main 2022 Chemistry - Class 11 JEEM22Ch259d Solution: A rigid nitrogen tank stored inside a laboratory has a pressure …

A rigid nitrogen tank stored inside a laboratory has a pressure of 30 atm at 06:00 am when the temperature is 27∘C. At 03:00 pm, when the temperature is 45∘, the pressure in the tank will be _________ atm. [nearest integer]

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

A nitrogen tank of fixed volume used where number of moles of nitrogen is fixed.

∴ V = constant

n = constant

R = constant

From ideal gas equation,

PV = nRT

⇒ P ∝ T [As V, n, R = constant]

Here, initially P1 = 30 atm, T1 = 300 K

Finally, P2 = ?, T2 = 318 K

∴ P1P2=T1T2

⇒30P2=300318

⇒P2=31.8≃32
