Question

Jacob subjects 11 liters of gas that he collected at 1.78 atm to an environment that

Answer 1

Considering the Boyle's law,the volume of the new sample of gas will be 19.778 atm.

Boyle's law

Boyle's law establishes the relationship between the pressure and the volume of a gas when the temperature is constant. This law says that the pressure of a gas in a closed container is inversely proportional to the volume of the container: if the pressure increases, the volume decreases, while if the pressure decreases, the volume increases.

Boyle's law is expressed mathematically as:

P×V=k

Having an initial state 1 and a final state 2, the following is true:

P1×V1=P2×V2

New volume

In this case, you know:

• P1= 1.78 atm
• V1= 11 L
• P2= 0.99 atm
• V2= ?

Replacing in Boyle's law:

1.78 atm× 11 L=0.99 atm× V2

Solving:

(1.78 atm× 11 L)÷ 0.99 atm=V2

19.778 atm= V2

Finally, the volume of the new sample of gas will be 19.778 atm.
