Question

A sample of gas under a pressure of 622kPa has a volume of 233cm3. If the pressure is increased to 988kPa what is the new volume that the gas will occupy? Assume that temperature remains constant. *

Answer 1

If the temperature is constant then we can apply boyle's law

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2\\622\times233=988\times V_2\\V_2=146.68cm^3$
