Answer: 7.693 L
Explanation:
To calculate the new volume, we use the equation given by Boyle's law. This law states that pressure is directly proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature.
The equation given by this law is:
where,
are initial pressure and volume.
are final pressure and volume.
We are given:
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Thus new volume of the gas is 7.693 L
Answer:
3
Explanation:
Applying,
= R/R'............... Equation 1
Where n' = number of halflives that have passed, R = Original atom of the substance, R' = atom of the substance left after decay.
From the question,
Given: R = 40 atoms, R' = 5 atoms
Substitute these values into equation 1
= 40/5
= 8
= 2³
Equation the base,
n' = 3
