Question

A gas has a volume of 22. 6L at 3. 6 atm. What is the pressure of the gas at 44. 3L

Answer 1

1.837 atm

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Boyle's Law:

`V_(1) P_(1) = V_(2)P_(2)`

(22.6L) (3.6atm) = (44.3L) (x)

x = 81.36 /44.3

x = 1.837 atm

This is because Volume and Pressure are inversely proportional. If one increases the other has to decrease.
