Answer to Question #107804 in General Chemistry for lorin

Question

A volume of carbon dioxide gas equals 20.0 L was collected at 23 degrees celsius and 1.00 atm pressure. what would be the volume of carbon dioxide collected at 23 celsius and 0.830 atm?

Answer 1

General gas equation:

p₁*V₁/T₁=p₂*V₂/T₂

p₁= 1atm

V₁= 20 L

T₁=T₂=23 oC

p₂=0.83 atm

V₂ - ?

V₂=p₁*V₁/p₂ = 20/0.83 = 24.1 L

Answer: 24.1 L
