Question

a gas measured a volume 100 mL under pressure of 740 mmHg. What would the volume be under a pressure of 780 mmHg with constant temperature

Answer 1

Answer:

94.87 mL

Explanation:

The new volume can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

$P_1V_1 = P_2V_2$

Since we're finding the new volume

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

We have

$V_2 = \frac{100 \times 740}{780} = \frac{74000}{780} \\ = 94.8717...$

We have the final answer as

94.87 mL

Hope this helps you
