Question

What volume will a sample of F2 gas occupy in a syringe at 5.5 atm if the f2 has volume of 30 ml at 1.2 atm?

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 6.54 mL

Explanation:

To find the new volume we use 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

$V_2 = \frac{30 \times 1.2}{5.5} = \frac{36}{5.5} \\ = 6.54545454...$

We have the final answer as

6.54 mL

Hope this helps you
