A gas occupies 8.2 liters at 2.5 atm. What is the pressure if the volume becomes 7.5 L?
2 answers
Use the equation PV=nRT (pressure times volume equals moles of gas times constant times temperature). Assuming you aren't with-holding information, the number of moles of gas and the temperature must remain the same, so the initial Pressure and Volume must be equal to the final Pressure and Volume. Use this equation P1V1=P2V2. simple plug and chug.
use PV=PV Answer 2.73
