Question

635 mL of a gas is at a pressure of 8.00 atm. What is the volume of the gas at standard pressure (1 atm) (STP)? (Boyle)

Answer 1

Answer:

5080 mL

Explanation:

The volume of the gas at standard pressure can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

$P_1V_1 = P_2V_2$

Since we are finding the new volume

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

From the question we have

$V_2 = \frac{635 \times 8}{1}$

We have the final answer as

5080 mL

Hope this helps you
