Thermodynamics

As a subset of physics, Thermodynamics is a fascinating field that delves into the study of energy, focusing on how thermal energy, or heat, can be converted into mechanical work. It explores several intriguing concepts, which include temperature, energy, entropy, and equilibrium states of systems. The principles derived from Thermodynamics find use in a wide array of disciplines, such as chemistry and engineering, and interestingly, even in biological systems.

Finding Pressure of the Gas

Question 12 1 pts In a system the mass is kept constant. The initial temperature of the system is \( 131^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \) and the volume is \( 7.1 \mathrm{~L} \). If the temperature changes to \( 31.1^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \), the pressure to \( 29.4 \mathrm{~atm} \), and the volume changes to \( 15.7 \mathrm{~L} \), what was the original pressure?
