Answer:
The new pressure is 1.05 atm
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
Number of moles oxygen gas = 6.2 moles
Volume of the cylinder = 4.3 L
Pressure of the gas = 3.8 atm
The volume changed to 15.5 L
Step 2: Calculate the new pressure
P1*V1 = P2*V2
⇒with P1 = the initial pressure of the gas = 3.8 atm
⇒with V1 = the initial volume = 4.3 L
⇒with V2 = the increased volume = 15.5 L
⇒with P2 = the new pressure = TO BE DETERMINED
3.8 atm * 4.3 L = 15.5 L * P2
P2 = (3.8 atm *4.3 L) / 15.5 L
P2 = 1.05 atm
The new pressure is 1.05 atm
