This question is incomplete, the complete question is;
The Figure shows a container that is sealed at the top by a moveable piston, Inside the container is an ideal gas at 1.00 atm. 20.0°C and 1.00 L.
"What will the pressure inside the container become if the piston is moved to the 1.60 L mark while the temperature of the gas is kept constant?"
Answer:
the pressure inside the container become 0.625 atm if the piston is moved to the 1.60 L mark while the temperature of the gas is kept constant
Explanation:
Given that;
P₁ = 1.00 atm
P₂ = ?
V₁ = 1 L
V₂ = 1.60 L
the temperature of the gas is kept constant
we know that;
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
so we substitute
1 × 1 = P₂ × 1.60
P₂ = 1 / 1.60
P₂ = 0.625 atm
Therefore the pressure inside the container become 0.625 atm if the piston is moved to the 1.60 L mark while the temperature of the gas is kept constant
