Question

If 22.5L of nitrogen at 748 mm Hg are compressed to 725 mm Hg at constant temperature. What is the new volume?2.A gas with a volume of 4.0L at a pressure of 205kPa is allowed to expand to a volume of 12.0L. What is the pressure in the container if the temperature remains constant? 3.What pressure is required to compress 196.0 litersof air at 1.00 atmosphere into a cylinder whose volume is 26.0 liters?4.A 40.0 L tank of ammonia has a pressure of 12.7 kPa. Calculate the volume of the ammonia if its pressure is changed to 8.4 kPa while its temperature remains constant.5.4. If a syringe is filled with 100 mL of air at 1 atm, how much pressure must be applied to reduce the volume to 60 mL?

Answer 1

a)23.2 L

b)68.3kPa

c)7.5 atm

d)60.5L

e)1.67 atm

Step-by-step explanation:

From Boyle's law:

P1V1=P2V2

P1= 748mmHg

P2=725mmHg

V1= 22.5L

V2??

V2= P1V1/P2= 748×22.5/725= 23.2 L

b)

V1=4.0L

P1= 205×10^3Pa

V2= 12.0L

P2=???

P2= P1V1/V2= 205×10^3×4/12

P2= 68.3×10^3 Pa or 68.3kPa

c)

P1= 1 atm

V1= 196.0L

P2= ??

V2= 26.0L

P2= P1V1/V2=1×196.0/26.0

P2= 7.5 atm

d)

V1= 40.0L

P1= 12.7×10^3Pa

V2=???

P2= 8.4×103Pa

V2= P1V1/P2= 12.7×10^3×40.0/8.4×103

V2=60.5L

e)

V1= 100mL

P1= 1atm

V2= 60mL

P2=???

P2= P1V1/V2= 1×100/60

P2= 1.67 atm
