Gas volume 20L. If the gas is isobarically cooled by 100 K, its volume will be equal to 10 liters

Gas volume 20L. If the gas is isobarically cooled by 100 K, its volume will be equal to 10 liters, then the initial gas temperature is equal to.

Given: V1 (initial gas volume) = 20 l; T1 – T2 = ΔT (change in gas temperature) = 100 K; V2 (gas volume after cooling) = 10 l; the gas cooling process is isobaric.
The initial gas temperature is determined from the equality: V1 / T1 = V2 / T2 = V2 / (T1 + 100).
V1 * (T1 + 100) = V2 * T1.
20 * (T1 + 100) = 10 * T1.
20T1 + 2000 = 10T1.
10T1 = 2000 and T1 = 2000/10 = 200 K.
Answer: The initial gas temperature was 200 K.
