Question

A 25L tank of nitrogen has a pressure of 6.7 kpa. Calculate the volume of nitrogen if the pressure is decreased to 3.4 kPa while maintaining constant temperature.

Answer 1

Answer:

49.26L

Explanation:

Hello,

Considering Boyle's law:

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

The volume in the second state is given by (solving for it):

$V_2=\frac{P_1V_1}{P_2} =\frac{25L*6.7kPa}{3.4kPa} \\V_2=49.26L$

Best regards.
