Question

The pressure of 10.0 L of gas increases from 1.50 atm to 1240 mmHg. What is the final volume of the gas, assuming constant temperature?

Answer 1

The final volume of gas is 9.19 L.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Volume = 10.0 L

Initial pressure = 1.50 atm

Final pressure = 1240 mmHg

We need to calculate the final volume of gas

Using formula of ideal gas

`P_(1)V_(1)=P_(2)V_(2)`

`V_(2)=(P_(1)V_(1))/(P_(2))`

Where, P₁ = initial pressure

P₂ = final pressure

V₁ = initial volume

Put the value into the formula

`V_(2)=(1.50*10*760)/(1240)`

`V_(2)=9.19\ L`

Hence, The final volume of gas is 9.19 L.
