Question

13. A gas occupies 4.31 liters at a pressure of 0.755 atm. Determine the volume if the

Answer 1

Answer:

13. 2.60 L.

14. 2.40 L.

Explanation:

We can use the general law of ideal gas: PV = nRT.

where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm.

V is the volume of the gas in L.

n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol.

R is the general gas constant,

T is the temperature of the gas in K.

If n and T are constant, and have different values of P and V:

(P₁V₁) = (P₂V₂)

13. A gas occupies 4.31 liters at a pressure of 0.755 atm. Determine the volume if the  pressure  is increased to 1.25 atm.

P₁ = 0.755 atm, V₁ = 4.31 L.

P₂= 1.25 atm, V₂ = ??? L.

∴ V₂ = (P₁V₁)/(P₂) = (0.755 atm)(4.31 L)/(1.25 atm) = 2.60 L.

14. 600.0 mL of a gas is at a pressure of 8.00 atm. What is the volume of the gas at 2.00  at m.

P₁ = 8.0 atm, V₁ = 600.0 mL.

P₂= 2.0 atm, V₂ = ??? L.

∴ V₂ = (P₁V₁)/(P₂) = (8.0 atm)(600.0 mL)/(2.0 atm) = 2400/0 mL = 2.40 L.
