it is a problem of app
Answer: 0.225 atm
Explanation:
For this problem, we have to use Boyle's Law.
Boyle's Law: P₁V₁=P₂V₂
Since we are asked to find P₂, let's manipulate the equation.
P₂=(P₁V₁)/V₂
With this equation, the liters cancel out and we will be left with atm.
P₂=0.225 atm
The symbol %v/v means percent by volume. Assuming there is no volume effects when these substances are mixed, we calculate as follows:
% v/v = (25 mL ethanol / 25 mL + 150 mL ) x 100
%v/v = 14.29 mL ethanol / mL solution
Hope this answers the question.
