Question

A sample of gas has a volume of 75.0 mL at 30.0 psi. Determine the pressure of the gas if its volume is changed to 15 mL and its temperature is kept constant.

Answer 1

5.995 psi

Step-by-step explanation:

30 psi = 2.04 atm

75 mL = 0.075 L

15 mL = 0.015 L

0.075 L/ 2.04 atm = 0.015 L/x

0.075x = 0.0306

x = 0.408

0.408 atm = 5.995 psi
