Answer:

The answer to your question is 3.- 0.67 l 4.- 0.72 atm

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Volume 1 = 2 l

Pressure 1 = 1 atm

Volume 2 = ?

Pressure 2 = 3 atm

Process

To solve this problem use Boyle's law.

P1V1 = P2V2

-Solve for V2

V2 = P1V1 / P2

-Substitution

V2 = (1)(2) / 3

-Simplification

V2 = 2/3

-Result

V2 = 0.67 l

4.-

Volume 1 = 12 l

Pressure 1 = 0.9 atm

Volume 2 = 15 l

Pressure 2 = ?

Process

To solve this problem use Boyle's law

P1V1 = P2V2

-Solve for P2

P2 = P1V1 / V2

-Substitution

P2 = (0.9 x 12) / 15

-Simplification

P2 = 10.8 / 15

-Result

P2 = 0.72 atm
