Question

A volum of a certain mass of gas occupies 952cm³ at 561mmHg.What is the volume under 760 mmHg at the same temperature? please help​

Answer 1

702 69/95 cm cubed or ~702.72 cm cubed

Step-by-step explanation:

Due to Boyle's law as pressure on a gas increases, the volume of gas decreases. There is an equation for this because it is an inverse proportion. So the equation is

P₂(New Pressure)=
`(p_(1)(Old Pressure)* V_(1)(Old Volume) )/(V_(2)(NewVolume) )`
By plugging the numbers in and doing a simple algebraic equation we can calculate that the answer is around 702.72 cm³
