Zinc blende, or sphalerite, can be described as having a face-centered cubic unit cell with sulfur atoms at each lattice point a
nd four zinc atoms within the unit cell. What is the empirical formula for this material? Follow standard convention for writing an empirical formula (ex. for AlCl3 enter AlCl3 not Cl3Al).

<h3>Answer:</h3>
79.8 ml
<h3>Explanation:</h3>Boyle's law describes the relationship between pressure and volume when the temperature is constant. For this question, I will be rounding to significant figures.
Boyle's Formula
When describing the relationship between pressure and volume, the formula . In this formula,
is the initial pressure and volume. On the other side,
is final pressure and volume. So, to find a missing variable you must plug in the values you are given.
Final Volume
Remember when solving this question to remain constant in your units. When we plug in the values we know we are given:
Now, we can multiply the left side
Finally, we can divide by 385 to isolate the final volume
This gives the final volume of 79.8mL.
