Solution

To find the temperature of the gas, we can use the ideal gas law equation, which is PV = nRT.

Here, P = pressure = 2.00 atmospheres V = volume = 0.00200 m^3 n = number of moles = 0.250 moles R = ideal gas constant. Since the pressure is given in atmospheres and volume in m^3, we need to use the value of R = 0.0821 L.atm/(mol.K) T = temperature, which we need to find.

But before we can use these values, we need to convert the volume from m^3 to L because the gas constant R we are using is in L.atm/(mol.K).

1 m^3 = 1000 L So, V = 0.00200 m^3 = 0.00200 * 1000 L = 2 L

Now we can substitute the values into the ideal gas law equation:

2.00 atm * 2 L = 0.250 moles * R * T 4.00 L.atm = 0.250 moles * 0.0821 L.atm/(mol.K) * T 4.00 L.atm = 0.020525 L.atm/K * T

Solving for T, we get:

T = 4.00 L.atm / 0.020525 L.atm/K = 195 K

So, the temperature of the gas is 195 Kelvin.
