An LPG cylinder contains gas at a pressure of 300 kPa at `27^(@)C`. The cylinder can withstand the pressure of `1.2 xx 10^6 `Pa. The room in which the cylinder is kept catches fire. The minimum temperature at which the bursting of cylinder will take place is __________ `""^(@)`C. (Nearest integer)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
927
At constant volume and number of moles of a gas , pressure is directly proportional to temperature
`(P_(1))/(T_(1))=(P_(2))/(T_(2))`
`T_(2)=(1.2 xx 10^(6))/(300 xx 10^(3))xx300 = 1200 K = 927^(@)C`
