Question

A sample of gas has a pressure of 1.5 atm and a volume of 3.5 L, what would be the pressure of this sample of gas if the volume decreases to 2.8 L? Show all of the work used to solve this problem. (3 points)

Answer 1

Hope this helps you.

Answer 2

Use P1V1 = P2V2 to solve for the new pressure
To substitute
1.5(3.5) = P2(2.8)
5.25 = 2.8(P2)
1.875 atm = P2 or the new pressure
