Answer:
The new volume of the vessel is 250 L
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
The volume of the cylinder = 20.0 L
The initial pressure of the gas = 25 atm
The pressure drops to 2 atm
Step 2: Calculate the volume of the vessel
P1*V1 = P2*V2
⇒with P1 = the initial pressure = 25 atm
⇒with V1 = the initial volume = 20.0 L
⇒with P2 = the final pressure = 2 atm
⇒with V2 = the final volume = TO BE DETERMINED
25 atm* 20.0 L = 2.0 atm * V2
V2 = 250 L
The new volume of the vessel is 250 L
