Two German chemists, Justus von Liebig (1803–1873) and Friedrich Wöhler (1800–1882), were responsible for the emergence of organic chemistry in the early nineteenth century. Their quantitative analytical methods helped establish the constitution of newly isolated and synthesized carbon compounds.
Boyle’s law gives the relationship between pressure and volume of gases. It states that at constant temperature the pressure of gas is inversely proportional to volume of gas.
PV = k
Where P is pressure V is volume and k is constant
P1V1 = P2V2
Parameters at STP are on the left side and parameters for the second instance are on the right side of the equation
P1 - standard pressure - 1.0 atm
Substituting the values in the equation
1.0 atm x 5.00 L = P x 15.0 L
P = 0.33 atm
New pressure is 0.33 atm
Answer: 3.6 L = 3600
Explanation: 3.6 L = 360 mL has a mistake. He multiplied by 100 instead of 1000.
