Question

A sample of neon gas occupies 0.220L at 0.860atm. What will be it’s new volume at 1.52 atm, assuming the temperature remains constant.

Answer 1

 The  new   volume  at 1.52 atm  is calculated  by  use  of  Bolyes  law  formula

that is  P1V1=P2V2
V1 = 0.220 L
P1=  0.860  atm
P2 =1.52  atm
V2=?

V2  is therefore = P1V1/P2

=(0.220 L x 0.860  atm)/ 1.52 atm= 0.1245  Liters
