Question

If a gas occupies 4.5 L at a pressure of 2.0 atm, what will be its volume at a pressure of 3.5 atm? Whose Law?

Answer 1

The volume will be 2, 57 L

Step-by-step explanation:

We use Boyle Mariotte's Law: for a given mass of gas at constant temperature, the pressure and volume vary inversely proportionally.

P1 x V1=P2 x V2

V2= (P1xV1)/P2 = (2,0 atm x 4,5 L)/3, 5 atm= 2, 57 L
