Question

A 2.00 L container of nitrogen has a pressure of 3.2 atm. What volume would the container be at if the pressure decreased to 1.00 atm

Answer 1

The volume would be 6,4 L

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the Boyle Mariotte formula, according to which for a certain mass of gas at constant temperature, the pressure and volume vary inversely proportionally: P1xV1 = P2xV2

V2= (P1xV1)/P2= (3,2 atm x 2, 00 L)/1,00 atm= 6,4 L
