Identify the gas law that applies to the following scenario: A 36.5 liter balloon holding 2.9 moles of carbon dioxide leaks. If
we are able to determine that 1.2 moles of carbon dioxide escaped before the container could be sealed, what is the new volume of the container?
O Boyle's Law
Charles Law
Gay-Lussac's Law
Avogadro's Law
The amount of moles is directly proportional to the volume of the gas under constant temperature and pressure. That is the statement of Avogadro's law. The equation is:
V1n2 = V2n1
<em>Where V is volume and n are moles of 1, initial state and 2, final state of the gas</em>
