Answer:
6.66 L
Explanation:
Boyle's Law:
P1V1 = P2V2
As we know that 1 atm = 760 torr
Substitute:
(10.0 L) (760 torr) = (V2) (1140 torr);
Solving, V2 = 6.66 L.
New volume of the gas sample is 6.67L.
According Boyles law, the pressure exerted by a fixed amount of gas is inversely proportional to the volume, when the temperature is kept constant.
PV= constant
P1 V1 = P2 V2
V2= (P1 *V1)/P2
Given that,
P1 = 1 atm
we know that, 1 atm = 760torr
P1= 1*760 torr
P1 = 760 torr
V1 = 10L
P2 = 1140 torr
V2=?
V2=(760 torr * 10 L) / 1140 torr
V2 =6.67 L
Thus, we can conclude that, new volume of the gas sample is 6.67 L.
