To find the volume at the time of the first measurement (V1), we can use the formula PV = k and plug in the given values:
P1V1 = P2V2
5.42V1 = 8.59(527)
5.42V1 = 4528.93
V1 = 4528.93 / 5.42
V1 ≈ 836 mL
Therefore, the volume at the time of the first measurement was approximately 836 mL. So the closest option is 835 mL.
P1V1 = P2V2
5.42V1 = 8.59(527)
5.42V1 = 4528.93
V1 = 4528.93 / 5.42
V1 ≈ 836 mL
Therefore, the volume at the time of the first measurement was approximately 836 mL. So the closest option is 835 mL.
