A quantity of nitrogen gas is enclosed in a tightly stoppered 500 mL flask at room temperature (20.0 °C) and 0.836 atm pressure. The flask is then heated to 680 °C. If the flask can withstand pressures up to 3 atm, will it explode under this heating?

The vessel will not explode since the new gas pressure is less than 3 atm.What will be the pressure when the temperature of a given volume of nitrogen gas is heated?The pressure when the temperature of a given volume of nitrogen gas is heated is calculated using the formula given below:P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂where;P₁ = initial pressureT₁ = initial temperatureP₂= final pressureT₂ = final temperatureSolving for P₂P₂ = P₁ * T₂ / T₁P₂ = 0.836 * (680 + 273) / (20 + 273)P₂ = 2.72 atmThe new pressure is less than 3 atm.Learn more about gas pressure at: https://brainly.com/question/25736513#SPJ1
