Answer:
4.8 atm.
Step-by-step explanation:
- We can use the general law of ideal gas: PV = nRT.
where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm.
V is the volume of the gas in L.
n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol.
R is the general gas constant,
T is the temperature of the gas in K.
- If n and T are constant, and have two different values of V and P:
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
P₁ = 10.0 atm, V₁ = 318.0 L.
P₂ = ??? atm, V₂ = 662.5 L.
∴ P₂ = P₁V₁/V₂ = (10.0 atm)(318.0 L)/(662.5 L) = 4.8 atm.
