Question:
In Problem 11.63, the temperature doubles but the pressure does not.
(a) Explain why the pressure does not double as well.
(b) To what temperature in °C would Diver Dan have to warm the tank in order to double the pressure?
Data from Problem 11.63
A tank of O2 gas is stored in a cool basement (T = 10.0°C). Its pressure gauge reads 50.5 lb/in.2. Diver Dan then places the tank in his truck, where the sun warms it to 20.0°C. What does the pressure gauge read at this elevated temperature?
