From Boyle's law the volume of a fixed mass of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure at a constant absolute temperature. Thus; K = PV Hence; P1V1 =P2V2 0.5 × 24 = 4× P2 P2 = 12/4 = 3 atm Therefore; the pressure will go from 24 atm to 3 atm
A chemical change is a change in the chemical makeup of a substance and results in a new substance. Ice and water both have the same chemical makeup - ice is just a different state and has the same atoms but in an expanded form.
