An ideal gas is allowed to expand from 5.40 L to 35.1 L at constant temperature. By what factor does the volume increase?
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

a) 6.5

b) pressure decreases

c)22 atm

Explanation:

Since the initial volume V1 is 5.40 L and the final volume V2 is 35.1 L, the ratio of V2:V1= 35.1/5.40= 6.5 hence the volume increases by a factor of 6.5.

When the volume increases, the pressure decreases accordingly in accordance with Boyle's law. Boyle's law states that the volume of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure at constant temperature.

c) From Boyle's law

Initial volume V1= 5.40 L

Final volume V2= 35.1 L

Initial pressure P1= 143 ATM

Final pressure P2 = the unknown

P1V1= P2V2

P2= P1V1/V2

P2 = 143 × 5.40/ 35.1

P2= 22 atm
