Answer:
P₂ = 592.7 torr
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data:
Initial Pressure = 215 torr
Initial volume = 51.0 mL
Final pressure = ?
Final volume = 18.5 mL
Solution:
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
P₁ = Initial Pressure
V₁ = Initial volume
P₂ = Final pressure
V₂ = Final volume
Now we will put the values in formula.
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
215 torr × 51.0 mL = P₂ × 18.5 mL
10965 mL. torr = P₂ × 18.5 mL
P₂ = 10965 mL. torr /18.5 mL
P₂ = 592.7 torr
