Explanation:
The reason why Marina sees the colour red, white and blue or the original colour of the American flag is that because of a phenomenon known as Afterimage. The retina in our eyes have mainly three receptors that are colour sensitive known as cones. These receptors can perceive the colour green, red and blue. Now when we look or stare at a particular colour for a long time, what happen is that our retina becomes tired and they ignore the colours that stared at. And now they work to form other colours at the retina just like the way when we produce other colour from the primary colour.
If the red receptor gets exhausted we will see the colour red. Likewise when we see the colour orange when we stare at the colour blue.
This explains the optical illusion of the American flag.
The answer is 165.3 cm³.
P1 * V1 / T1 = P2 * V2 / T2
The initial sample:
P1 = 84.6 kPa
V1 = 215 cm³
T1 = 23.5°C = 23.5 + 273 K = 296.5 K
At STP:
P2 = 101.3 kPa
V2 = ?
T2 = 273 K
Therefore:
84.6 * 215 / 296.5 = 101.3 * V2 / 273
61.34 = 101.3 * V2 / 273
V2 = 61.34 * 273 / 101.3
V2 = 165.3 cm³
