Question

3.00 Liters of gas are stored at standard temperature and pressure. If the volume of the gas is increased to 4.00 L at a constant temperature what is the new pressure of the gas

Answer 1

When the the and i do

Answer 2

The new pressure of the gas : 0.75 atm

Further explanation

Boyle's Law

At a constant temperature, the gas volume is inversely proportional to the pressure applied

`\rm p_1V_1=p_2.V_2\\\\(p_1)/(p_2)=(V_2)/(V_1)`

P₁=1 atm ⇒ standart temperature and pressure (STP)

V₁=3 L

V₂=4 L

`\tt P_2=(P_1.V_1)/(V_2)\\\\P_2=(1* 3)/(4)\\\\P_2=0.75~atm`
