2). Although it doesn't, let's pretend that Venus has an atmosphere similar to our own. It has a surface temperature of 750 K. Assuming the volume is held constant, what is the pressure change when the temperature changes from 20° C on Earth to the temperature of Venus? If we kept the pressure constant, how small would the volume of air have to be to get to the temperature of Venus?

According to http://hyperphysics.phy-str.gsu.edu/hbase/solar/venusenv.html, the atmosphere of Venus is approximately 96.5% CO2 and 3.5% N2 by volume. On the surface, where the temperature is about 750 K and the pressure is about 90 atm, what is the density of the atmosphere?
If a nonhuman civilization were to develop on Saturn's largest moon, Titan, its scientists might well devise a temperature scale based on the properties of methane, which is much more abundant on the surface than water is. Methane freezes at -182.6 °C on Titan, and boils at -155.2 °C. Taking the boiling point of methane as 100.0 °M (degrees Methane) and its freezing point as 0 °M, what temperature on the Methane scale corresponds to the boiling point of water on the Celsius scale, 100 °C? You must show all of the conversion steps.
