Question

2) Gas in a balloon occupies 3.3 L. What volume will it occupy if the pressure

is changed from 100 kPa to 90 kPa,

Answer 1

The answer is 3.7 L

Step-by-step explanation:

The new volume can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

`P_1V_1 = P_2V_2`

Since we are finding the new volume

`V_2 = (P_1V_1)/(P_2) \\`

From the question we have

`V_2 = (3.3 * 100000)/(90000) = (330000)/(9000 ) \\ = 3.666666...`

We have the final answer as

3.7 L

Hope this helps you
