Hydrogen remains a gas at very low temperatures. It does not condense to a liquid until the temperature is $-253^{\circ} \mathrm{C},$ and it freezes shortly thereafter, at $-259^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$. What are the equivalent absolute temperatures?
Under constant pressure conditions, a sample of hydrogen gas initially at 88 degrees Celsius and 9.6 L is cooled until its final volume is 3.4 L. What is the final temperature? I know we add 273 to 88 to get 361 K. Do we multiply 3.4 by 9.6 L? Is the final temperature -145 from subtracting 273 from the answer?

Hydrogen $\left(\mathrm{H}_{2}\right)$ is heated to $3800 \mathrm{K}$ at a constant pressure of 5 atm. Determine the percentage of $\mathrm{H}_{2}$ that will dissociate into H during this process.
