Question

If a container is filled with 13.3 L of gas at 1.41 atm. The container is held at constant temperature throughout the experiment if the pressure changes to 1.02 atm what will the final volume be

Answer 1

Answer:

The final volume is 18.38 L.

Explanation:

It is given that,

A container is filled with 13.3 L of gas at 1.41 atm. The container is held at constant temperature throughout the experiment if the pressure changes to 1.02 atm.

It is based on Boyle's law. According to this law, at constant temperature,

$PV=K$

K is constant

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

$V_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{P_2}\\\\V_2=\dfrac{13.3\times 1.41}{1.02}\\\\V_2=18.38\ L$

So, the final volume is 18.38 L.
