Answer: 1800 L

Explanation:

Given that,

Original pressure of gas (P1) = 180 kPa

Original volume of gas (V1) = 1500 L

New pressure of gas (P2) = 150 kPa

New volume of gas (V2) = ?

Since pressure and volume are given while temperature is held constant, apply the formula for Boyle's law

P1V1 = P1V2

180 kPa x 1500 L = 150 kPa x V2

270000 kPa•L = 150 kPa•V2

Divide both sides by 150 kPa

270000 kPa•L/150 kPa = 150 kPa•V2/150 kPa

1800L = V2

Thus, the new volume of the gas is 1800 liters.

Please help with #2 and #3

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

2. $V_2=17L$

3. $V=82.9L$

Explanation:

Hello there!

2. In this case, we can evidence the problem by which volume and temperature are involved, so the Charles' law is applied to:

$\frac{V_2}{T_2}=\frac{V_1}{T_1}$

Thus, considering the temperatures in kelvins and solving for the final volume, V2, we obtain:

$V_2=\frac{V_1T_2}{T_1}$

Therefore, we plug in the given data to obtain:

$V_2=\frac{18.2L(22+273)K}{(45+273)K} \\\\V_2=17L$

3. In this case, it is possible to realize that the 3.7 moles of neon gas are at 273 K and 1 atm according to the STP conditions; in such a way, considering the ideal gas law (PV=nRT), we can solve for the volume as shown below:

$V=\frac{nRT}{P}$

Therefore, we plug in the data to obtain:

$V=\frac{3.7mol*0.08206\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*273.15K}{1atm}\\\\V=82.9L$

Best regards!
