Question

A student collects 25 mL of gas at 96 kPa. What volume would this gas occupy at 101.325 kPa. There is no change in temperature or mass.

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 23.69 mL

Explanation:

The new volume can be found by using the formula

$P_1V_1 = P_2V_2$

Since we are finding the new volume

$V_2 = \frac{P_1V_1}{P_2}$

From the question we have

101.325 kPa = 101325 Pa

96 kPa = 96000 Pa

From the question we have

$V_2 = \frac{25 \times 96000}{101325} = \frac{2400000}{101325} \\ = 23.68615840...$

We have the final answer as

23.69 mL

Hope this helps you
