Question

A Gas OCCUPIES 525ML AT A PRESSURE OF 85.0 kPa WHAT WOULD THE VOLUME OF THE GAS BE AT THE PRESSURE OF 65.0 kPa

Answer 1

The answer is 45.0 I think idk tho

Answer 2

Boyle's law of ideal gas: This law states that the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure at a constant temperature. Acc to this law we can write the relation of pressure and volume as:

`PV=Constant`

That means:

`P_(1)V_(1)=P_(2)V_(2)`

From that equation we can calculate Volume of gas at a certain pressure:

P₁=Initial pressure

V₁=Initial volume

P₂=Final pressure

V₂= Final volume

Here P₁, initial pressure is given as 85.0 kPa

V₁, initial volume is given as 525 mL

P₂, final pressure is 65.0 kPa

`P_(1)V_(1)=P_(2)V_(2)`

so,

V_{2}=85\times 525\div 65

=686 mL

Volume of gas will be 686 mL.
