Calculating the Effect of Temperature Changes on Pressure

The gas pressure in an aerosol can is 1.5 atm at 25 °C. Assuming that the gas obeys the ideal-gas equation, what is the pressure when the can is heated to 450 °C?

If you fill your car tire to a pressure of 32 psi (pounds per square inch) on a hot summer day when the temperature is 35 °C (95 °F), what is the pressure (in psi) on a cold winter day when the temperature is -15 °C (5 °F)? Assume no gas leaks out between measurements and the volume of the tire does not change, (a) 38 psi. (b) 27 psi. (c) -13.7 psi. (d) 1.8 psi. (e) 13.7 psi.
