Question

The pressure on a 205mL volume of gas is decreased from 985mm Hg to 615 mm Hg while constant temperature is maintained. What is the new volume of the gas

Answer 1

Solution:

by the law of Boyle-Marriott:

p₁V₁=p₂V₂, V₂ = p₁V₁/p₂ = 2.05*10^-4m³*985/615 = 3.2833*10^-4m³

Answer: 3.2833*10^-4m³
