What volume (in mL) will a sample of F₂ gas occupy in a syringe at 5.57 bar if the F₂ has a volume of 25.0 mL at 1.22 bar? A) 11 mL B) 17 mL C) 3.8 mL D) 5.5 mL E) 7.6 mL

We can use the combined gas law to solve this problem:

(P1 x V1) / T1 = (P2 x V2) / T2

where P1 = 1.22 bar, V1 = 25.0 mL, T1 is not given, P2 = 5.57 bar, V2 is the volume we want to find, and T2 is also not given. Since T1 and T2 are not given, we can assume they are constant and cancel them out:

(P1 x V1) / T1 = (P2 x V2) / T2
(P1 x V1) = (P2 x V2)
V2 = (P1 x V1) / P2

Plugging in the values we get:

V2 = (1.22 bar x 25.0 mL) / 5.57 bar = 5.5 mL

Therefore, the answer is D) 5.5 mL.
