पर्याय

• 273 K and 2 atm

• 273°C and 2 atm

• 546°C and 0.5 atm

• 0°C and 0 atm

Answer 1

273°C and 2 atm

Explanation:

P₁ = 1 atm, T₁ = 273 K, P₂ = ?, T₂ = ?

Gay Lussac's law states that

`P_1/T_1 = P_2/T_2` = constant

`1/273 = P_2/T_2` = constant

If P₂ = 2 atm and T₂ = 546 K (273°C)

Law of Gay Lussac, i.e. `1/273 = 2/546` holds good.
