Question

A 100 mL sample of a gas has a pressure of 1.92 atm. What would the volume of the gas be at a pressure of 2 atm, if temperature remains constant?

Answer 1

New volume V2 = 96 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Old volume V1 = 100 ml

Old pressure P1 = 1.92 atm

New pressure P2 = 2 atm

Find:

New volume V2

Computation:

Using Boyle's Law

P1V1 = P2V2

(1.92)(100) = (2)(V2)

V2 = 96

New volume V2 = 96 ml
