A 120.mL sample of a gas is at a pressure of 1.50 atm.If the temperature remains constant, what will be its volume at 3.50 atm of pressure?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Using Boyle's Law, we can say that the product of the pressure and volume is constant as long as the temperature is constant.

P1V1 = P2V2

Plugging in the given values, we get:

(1.50 atm)(120 mL) = (3.50 atm)(V2)

V2 = (1.50 atm)(120 mL) / (3.50 atm)

V2 = 51.4 mL

Therefore, the volume of the gas at 3.50 atm of pressure would be 51.4 mL.
