1.	A gas cylinder containing cooking gas can withstand a pressure of 14.9 atmosphere. The pressure gauge of cylinder indicates 12 atmosphere at 27°C. Due to sudden fire in the building the temperature starts rising. At what temeprature, cylinder will explode.
Answer» e given, = 12 BAR = 27°C + 273 = 300 K = 14.9 bar = ?According to the PRESSURE TEMPERATURE law,Substituting the given values,Temperature in centigrade = 372.5 - 273 = 99.5°C Therefore, the cylinder will be at 99.5°C.
