Question

F

A fluorinated organic gas in a cylinder is com-
pressed from an initial volume of 930 ml at
156 Pa to 400 mL at the same temperature.
What is the final pressure?
Answer in units of Pa.

Answer 1

Final pressure = 362.7 Pa

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Initial volume, V₁ = 930 ml

Initial pressure P₁ = 156 Pa

Final volume, V₂ = 400 mL

We need to find the final pressure. We know that the relation between volume and pressure is inverse i.e.

`V\propto (1)/(P)\\\\(V_1)/(V_2)=(P_2)/(P_1)\\\\P_2=(V_1P_1)/(V_2)\\\\P_2=(930* 156)/(400)\\\\P_2=362.7\ Pa`

So, the final pressure is equal to 362.7 Pa.
