Question

When 85 L of gas at 1.376 atm has its pressure changed to 0.154 atm, what is the new volume?

Answer 1

759.48 L

Step-by-step explanation:

The new volume can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

`P_1V_1 = P_2V_2`

Since we are finding the new volume

`V_2 = (P_1V_1)/(P_2) \\`

From the question we have

`V_2 = (85 * 1.376)/(0.154) = (116.96)/(0.154) \\ = 759.480519...`

We have the final answer as

759.48 L

Hope this helps you
