1.	A gas cylinder containing cooking gas can withstand a pressure of 14.9 atmospheres. The pressure gauge of the cylinder indicates 12 atmosphere at 27^(@)C. Due to sudden fire in the building, the temperature starts rising.At what temperature the cylinder will explode ?
Answer» SOLUTION :`P_(1)`=12 ATM, `T_(1)`=300 K, `P_(2)`=14.9 atm, `T_(2)`=? As volume of the CYLINDER is constant, `(P_(1))/(T_(1))=(P_(2))/(T_(2))`
