In chemistry and physics, the ideal gas law relates the pressure , volume , number of moles , and temperature of a gas under ideal conditions via the equation
From the ideal gas law, we can see that pressure and temperature are directly proportional. A rigid, enclosed container holds a sample of oxygen gas. At K (kelvin, an absolute unit of temperature), the sample is under atm of pressure. How much pressure would be the sample be under if its temperature were raised to K?
