Answer:
10 L
Explanation:
The only variables are pressure and volume, so we can use Boyle's Law:
p1V1 = p2V2
Data:
p1 = 125 atm; V1 = 4.0 L
p2 = 50 atm; V2 = ?
Calculation:
125 × 4.0 = 50V2
500 = 50 V2
V2 = 500/50 = 10 L
The new volume will be 10 L.
First look at the numbers. Notice that this is in decimal form. When it's in decimal form, you have to move the decimal to the right until you see a different number other than 0. Therefore, starting with decimal, move it to the right 4 times since a # bigger than 0 is there.
0.000371
- - - -
The answer will be 3.71^-4
If it is in decimal form, the power will be a negative
