The temperature at sea level is 86oF. If we ascend to an altitude of 2,500 feet, what is the temperature at that height?

YOu can do a problem like this: If you have an enclosed gas that can change pressure, what would be the temperature. You would use P1/T1=P2/T2. You need to find (look up) the pressure at 2500 feet (average) and use P at STP. This may not be your problem, but as close as possible with the info given.

You can't predict the temperature at 2500 ft using solely a sea level temperature. What if there is a cold wind or a warm wind? All the chemistry in the world will not help without additional measurement
