Robert Boyle, the 17th century British chemist, first noticed that the volume of a given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure when kept at a constant temperature. When working with ideal gases we use PV = nRT, but remember n, R, and T are all constant. Therefore we have:
PV(before) = PV(after)
P(0.5650) = (715.1)(1.204)
Add 450 million grams to the solution
The lack of a number preceding the carbon symbol C and the compound formula CO2 shows that there is one carbon atom and one carbon dioxide molecule. Subscript numbers in chemical formulas represent the number of atoms or molecules immediately preceding the subscript.
