According to Charles's Law, for an ideal gas at constant pressure, the volume is directly proportional to its absolute temperature (V∝T).
- Initial State: V1=V, T1=0∘C=273 K.
- Final State: The volume expands to 3V. Since V∝T, if the volume becomes 3 times the initial volume, the absolute temperature must also become 3 times the initial temperature.
T2=3T1=3×273=819 K.
- Calculate Increase:
Change in temperature ΔT=T2−T1=3T1−T1=2T1.
- Percentage Increase:
% Increase=T1ΔT×100=T12T1×100=200%.
