A gas thermometer contains 250 mL of gas at 0° C and 1.0 atm pressure. If the pressure remains at 1.0 atm, how many mL will the volume increase for every one celsius degree that the temperature rises?
I don't understand this part "for every one celsius degree"

Here's what I got.
The problem states that the pressure remains unchanged, so right from the start, you should know that you can use Charles' Law to calculate the change in volume associated with a
#color(blue)(ul(color(black)(V_1/T_1 = V_2/T_2)))#
Here
#V_1# and#T_1# represent the volume and the absolute temperature of the gas at an initial state#V_2# and#T_2# represent the volume and the absolute temperature of the gas at a final state
Now, it's very important to remember that you must work with absolute temperatures here, i.e. with temperatures expressed in Kelvin.
In your case, the gas starts at
#0^@"C" = 0^@"C" + 273.15 = "273.15 K"#
When the temperature of the gas increases by
#0^@"C" + 1^@"C" = 1^@"C" -># the temperatue increases by#1^@"C"#
which is
#1^@"C" = 1^@"C" + 273.15 = "274.15 K"#
Similarly, you will have
#"273.15 K" + "1 K" = "274.15 K" -># the temperature increases by#"1 K"#
So, you must determine the change in volume that accompanies a
Rearrange the equation to solve for Plug in your values to find So the volume of the gas increased by Notice what happens when you increase the temperature from The volume of the gas increased by You can thus say that with every If you were to draw a graph of this relationship, you'd end up with a straight line that goes

For a gas held at constant pressure, the volume is directly proportional to the temperature in Kelvin according to Charles's Law. Therefore, for every one Celsius degree rise in temperature, the volume of the gas will increase by approximately 1/273 of its original volume. So, the volume will increase by approximately 0.92 mL for every one Celsius degree rise in temperature.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
