Chemistry

The boiling point<span> is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the surrounding pressure. At this temperature, liquid gets converted into vapour phase.
</span>
Now, if one goes to higher heights, i.e. mountains, pressure decreases. Since, pressure decreases the boiling point also decreases. Hence, if heating rate is same, the time needed to reach the boiling point will decrease.

A certain gas occupies a volume of 26L when the applied pressure is 5.7atm. find the pressure in the system when the gas is comp
sergiy2304 [10]
P1 = 5.7atm V1 = 26L
P2 = ? V2 = 6.5 L

By Boyles Law,
P1V1 = P2V2
5.7 × 26 = P2 × 6.5
By solving,
P2 = 22.8atm.
