Question

The volume of carbon gas at 5.0 ATM was measured to be 363 ml. What will the pressure be if the volume is change to .00020 ml?

Answer 1

The answer to your question is P2 = 9075000 atm

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Pressure 1 = P1 = 5 atm

Volume 1 = V1 = 363 ml

Pressure 2 = P2 = ?

Volume 2 = 0.0002 ml

Process

To solve this problem use Boyle's law

P1V1 = P2V2

-Solve for P2

P2 = P1V1/V2

-Substitution

P2 = (5 x 363) / 0.0002

-Simplification

P2 = 1815 / 0.0002

-Result

P2 = 9075000 atm
