Problem

At constant pressure the volume of an ideal gas varies linearly with Celsius temperature. In an experiment, the gas has a volume of

2.00\,\text{L}

25^\circ\text{C}

and

2.50\,\text{L}

95^\circ\text{C}

. Extrapolating this straight line, the temperature at which the gas volume would become zero is closest to a)

-273^\circ\text{C}

-255^\circ\text{C}

-240^\circ\text{C}

-260^\circ\text{C}
