Initial volume of the gas (V1) = 10 inches^3
Initial pressure (P1) = 5 psi
Final pressure after compression of the gas (P1) = 10 psi
Let us assume the final volume of the gas (V2) = x
According to Boyle's Gas law, the pressure and volume of a gas remains constant under ideal condition. Then
P1V1= P2V2
5 * 10 = 10 * x
50 = 10x
x = 50/10
   = 5 cubic inches
So the volume of the gas after it was compressed was 5 cubic inches. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.

Ixchelt burns her tongue when she takes a sip of hot coffee from her mug. Which part of this example represents heat?
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

"The thermal energy moving from her coffee to the tongue" represent the heat.

Here coffee is at high temperature while tongue is at low temperature, when Ixchelt tongue make contact with coffee then thermal energy of coffee is absorbed by tongue and tongue gets burned.

As heat always from high Potential to low that is why heat is absorbed by tongue.
