A sample of neon gas occupies 0.220L at 0.860atm. What will be it’s new volume at 1.52 atm, assuming the temperature remains constant.

The new volume at 1.52 atm is calculated by use of Bolyes law formula

that is P1V1=P2V2
V1 = 0.220 L
P1= 0.860 atm
P2 =1.52 atm
V2=?

V2 is therefore = P1V1/P2

=(0.220 L x 0.860 atm)/ 1.52 atm= 0.1245 Liters
