To find the volume of the gas at standard atmospheric pressure, we can use Boyle's Law, which states that the pressure and volume of a gas are inversely proportional when temperature is held constant.
Boyle's Law equation:
P1V1 = P2V2
P1 = initial pressure = 4 atm
V1 = initial volume = 500 mL
P2 = final pressure (standard atmospheric pressure) = 1 atm
V2 = final volume (unknown)
Plugging in the values into the equation:
4 atm * 500 mL = 1 atm * V2
V2 = (4 atm * 500 mL) / 1 atm
V2 = 2000 mL
Therefore, the gas would occupy a volume of 2000 mL at standard atmospheric pressure.
A sample of gas occupies 500ml at 4atm what volume doesn't occupy at standard atomospheric pressure
