Which gas law can be used to calculate the final volume of a gas when both pressure and temperature change?
Step 1: Understand that gases behave differently under changes in pressure and temperature.
Step 2: Learn about the Combined Gas Law, which is a formula that relates pressure, volume, and temperature of a gas.
Step 3: The formula is P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2, where P1 and V1 are the initial pressure and volume, T1 is the initial temperature, and P2 and V2 are the final pressure and volume, T2 is the final temperature.
Step 4: Use this formula to find the final volume (V2) when you know the initial conditions (P1, V1, T1) and the final conditions (P2, T2).
Step 5: Rearrange the formula to solve for V2: V2 = (P1V1T2) / (P2T1).
