Question

A fixed amount of a gas occupies a volume of 1liter and exerts a pressure of 400 kPa on the walls of its container. What would be the pressure exerted by the gas if it is completely transferred into a new container having a volume of 3liter?​

Answer 1

Answer: P2 = (400 kPa x 1 L) / 3 L = 133.33 kPa

Step-by-step explanation:

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

P2 = (P1V1)/V2

plug in values = P2 = (400 kPa x 1 L) / 3 L = 133.33 kPa
