P1V1 = P2V2
P1 = 2.94 Atm
V1 = 0.026 mL
P2 = 1.00 atm
V2 = ?
Solve for V2
A scuba diver ascends too quickly and develops the bends. A nitrogen bubble has formed in the patient's elbow. At a depth of 64 ft, where the pressure is 2.94 atm, the bubble had a volume of 0.026 mL. Assuming a constant temperature and number of moles of nitrogen in the bubble, what volume did the bubble increase to at the surface, where the pressure is 1.00 atm?
