A gas in a rigid container at 25°C has a pressure of 0.96 atm. A change in temperature causes the pressure to increase to 1.25 atm. What is the new temperature of the gas?

Use P1/T1 = P2/T2.

T1 = 25°C = 298.15 K.
T2 = T1*(P2/P1) = 298.15*(1.25/0.96) ≈ 388.25 K = 388.25 − 273.15 ≈ 115.1°C.

Answer: 115°C.
