The volume will increase as the temperature goes up, but to get the amount you must convert the temperatures to Kelvin so the answer is (90 + 273) / ( 30 + 273) = 363/303 = 1.2 so the volume increased by 20%

Volume and temperature are directly proportional. Think of heating a balloon. The volume will expand.

The only tricky part is that you have to use Kelvin for the temperature and not Celsius. So the temperature is increasing from 303 K to 363K.

That would be a 20% increase.

c). This is Charle's Law. (T & V are Directly Proportional)
363/303 = 1.20 ....The volume will increase by 20%.

The blended gas equation is PV/T = P'V'/T'. If one element is held consistent, you will discover what the relationship between the different 2. to that end, P is persevering with, so the equation is V/T = V'/T' (do no longer overlook to apply absolute temperatures)

You need to convert to Kelvin first.

30C + 273.15 = 303.15K
90C + 273.15 = 363.15K

Now, with constant pressure:

V1/T1 = V2/T2

V1T2/T1 = V2

V1(363.15)/(303.15) = V2

(1.198)V1 = V2

(119.8%)V1 = V2

So it increased by 19.8%. The answer is c.
