Because the temperature remains constant, we can apply Boyle's Law which states that
pV = constant
where
p = pressure
V = volume
Define the two states of the gas.
State 1
Pressure = p₁
Volume = 1000 ml
State 2
Pressure = p₂
Volume = 500 ml
Apply Boyle's law.
1000p₁ = 500p₂
2 = p₂/p₁
By halving the volume, the pressure doubles.
Answer:
The pressure increases by a factor of 2.
To solve this we assume
that the gas inside the balloon is an ideal gas. Then, we can use the ideal gas
equation which is expressed as PV = nRT. At a constant pressure and number of
moles of the gas the ratio T/V is equal to some constant. At another set of
condition of temperature, the constant is still the same. Calculations are as
follows:
T1 / V1 = T2 / V2
V2 = T2 x V1 / T1
V2 =284.15 x 2.50 / 303.15

Explanation:
formula: <u>Mass</u>
Density x volume
2a) m=10kg v=0.3m³
10÷0.3=33.3 kg/m
2b) m = 160 kg V=0.1m³
160÷0.1=1600 kg/m
2c) m = 220 kg V = 0.02m³
220÷0.02=11000 kg/m
A wooden post has a volume of 0.025m³ and a mass of 20kg. Calculate its density in kg/m.
density = volume ÷ mass
20÷ 0.025=800 kg/m
Challenge: A rectangular concrete slab is 0.80m long, 0.60 m wide and 0.04m thick. Calculate its volume in m³.
Formula : Length x width x height = Volume
0.80 x 0.60 x 0.04 = 0.0192m³
B) The mass of the concrete slab is 180 kg. Calculate its density in kg/m.
density = volume ÷ mass
180 ÷ 0.0192 = 9375 kg/m
