Question

2.00 liters of gas at 1.00 atm and conpresssed it to a pressure of 6.00 atm, what would the volume of the gas be

Answer 1

Answer:

$V_2=0.5L$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

initial Volume $V_1=2.00L$

initial Pressure $P_1=1 atm$

Final  Pressure $P_2=6atm$

Generally the equation for Final Volume V_2 is mathematically given by

Since Boyle's law states

 $P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

 $V_2=\frac{P_1V_1}{P_2}$

 $V_2=\frac{2*1}{6}$

 $V_2=0.5L$
