Answer:

3 L

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial volume (V₁) = 2 L

Initial pressure (P₁) = 0.75 atm

Final pressure (P₂) = 0.5 atm

Final volume (V₂) =?

Using the Boyle's law equation, the new volume (i.e final volume) of the Ne gas can be obtained as:

Initial volume (V₁) = 2 L

Initial pressure (P₁) = 0.75 atm

Final pressure (P₂) = 0.5 atm

Final volume (V₂) =?

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

0.75 × 2 = 0.5 × V₂

1.5 = 0.5 × V₂

Divide both side by 0.5

V₂ = 1.5 / 0.5

V₂ = 3 L

Thus, the new volume of the Ne gas is 3 L
