Analysis

1. How does the pressure of the gas change with temperature? What do you notice about the plots of P vs T(°C) and P vs T(K)?
Los cambios de la presion son directamente proporcinales a los de la temperatura, es decir, la magnitud de la temperatura al aumentar, tambien aumenta la
magntud de la temperatura. Las recta de P vs T (ºC) y la recta de P vs T (K) son casi iguales, esto a pesar de que, las escalas de las tempraturas sean distintas,
su unica diferencia es la posicion en el eje X de la recta en la grafica 1 esta mas corrida hacia la izquierda.

2. What product or ratio of properties remains constant (P´T, T´V, P/V, V/T, etc.)? When you have decided, label the "Constant?" column with the proper term and
fill in the values.
P1/T1 = P2/T2 V y n PV = nRT P/T = nR/V nR/V=C P/T = C C = (n* 0,082 (torr*mL)/(mol*K)/ 391 mL = n* 0.00021 (torr/mol*K)

3. Derive the relationship between P1 and P2, the pressures of a gas at two temperatures, T1 and T2.
P1/T1 = P2/T2 P2 = (P1*T2)/T1 P2 = (606.2 torr* 307.2 K) / 297.2 K = 626.6 torr

4. If a sample of gas in a container of fixed volume is initially at 26.3°C and 652.5 torr, what will its pressure be if the temperature is increased to 52.6°C?
(652.5 torr / 26.3 ºC) = (P2/ 52.6ºC) P2 = (652.5 torr* (52.6+273,15)K/ (26.3+273,15)K = 710 torr
