At constant temperature, if the pressure is compressed to the given value, the volume of the nitrogen gas increases to 23.2L.
<h3>What is Boyle's law?</h3>
Boyle's law simply states that "the volume of any given quantity of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure as long as temperature remains constant.
Boyle's law is expressed as;
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
Where P₁ is Initial Pressure, V₁ is Initial volume, P₂ is Final Pressure and V₂ is Final volume.
Given that;
- Initial volume of the gas V₁ = 22.5L
- Initial pressure of the gas P₁ = 0.98atm
- Final pressure of the gas P₂ = 0.95atm
- Final volume of the gas V₂ = ?
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
V₂ = P₁V₁ / P₂
V₂ = (0.98atm × 22.5L) / 0.95atm
V₂ = 22.05Latm / 0.95atm
V₂ = 23.2L
Therefore, at constant temperature, if the pressure is compressed to the given value, the volume of the nitrogen gas increases to 23.2L.
