Question

The volume of a gas is 250ml at 3.6 atm. What will the volume be when the pressure is reduced to 0.75 atm?

Answer 1

Answer:

V₂ =  1200 mL

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of gas = 250 mL

Pressure of gas = 3.6 atm

Final pressure = 0.75 atm

Final volume = ?

Solution:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

V₂ = P₁V₁ /P₂

V₂ = 3.6 atm . 250 mL /0.75 atm

V₂ = 900 atm. mL /0.75 atm

V₂ =  1200 mL
