To find the melting point of sulfur using the pressures recorded by a constant volume gas thermometer, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between pressure and temperature Since we are using a constant volume gas thermometer, we know that pressure (P) is directly proportional to temperature (T) when the volume and the amount of gas are held constant. This can be expressed as: \[ \frac{P_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2}{T_2} \] ### Step 2: Identify the known values From the problem, we have: ...
