Determine the Constant of Variation for the Stated Condition

question 44

Multiple Choice

Determine the constant of variation for the stated condition.
-The pressure of a gas varies jointly as the amount of the gas (measured in moles) and the temperature and inversely as the volume of the gas. If the pressure is 1170 kPa (kiloPascals) when the number of moles is 8, the temperature is 260° Kelvin, and the volume is 960 cc, find the pressure when the number of moles is 10, the temperature is 290° K, and the volume is 600 cc.

• A) 2610
• B) 2880
• C) 1305
• D) 1170
