One of the examples of Boyles law in action is a syringe
Salt dissolving in a glass of water, using electricity to break down water into hydrogen and oxygen, rust forming on an iron fence and gas burning on a stove.
Answer:
V = 34430 mL
Explanation:
Given data:
Volume in mL = ?
Number of moles of gas = 2.00 mol
Temperature = 36°C (36+273= 309K)
Pressure of gas = 1120 torr
Solution:
Formula:
PV = nRT
V = nRT/P
V = 2.00 mol ×62.4 torr • L/mol · K × 309K / 1120 torr
V = 38563.2 torr • L / 1120 torr
V = 34.43 L
L to mL
34.43 L ×1000 mL / 1 L
34430 mL
Answer:
1188.0 mL.
Explanation:
- We can use the general law of ideal gas: PV = nRT.
where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm.
V is the volume of the gas in L.
n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol.
R is the general gas constant,
T is the temperature of the gas in K.
- If n and P are constant, and have two different values of V and T:
<em>V₁T₂ = V₂T₁
</em>
V₁ = 900 mL, T₁ = 27.0°C + 273 = 300.0 K.
V₂ = ??? mL, T₂ = 123.0°C + 273 = 396.0 K.
<em>∴ V₂ = V₁T₂/T₁ </em>= (900 mL)(396 K)/(300.0 K) = <em>1188.0 mL.</em>
