1.	In the Celcius scale, melting point of ice is 0^@C. Another scale of temperature is based on absolute zero. Consider a gas at 0^@C. At what temperature will the volume be doubled if the pressure is kept constant?
Answer» Solution :`T_1 = 0^@C` = 273K `V_1 = 1, V_2 = 2` At CONSTANT pressure according to Charles law `V_1/T_1 = V_2/T_2` 1/273 = `2/T_2` `therefore T_2 = 273xx2` = 546K
