A 250.0mL sample of chlorine gas is collected when the barometric pressure is 105.2 kPa. What is the volume of the sample after the barometer drops to 100.3 kPa?

Answer:

The answer is 262.21 mL

Explanation:

The new volume can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

[tex]P_1V_1 = P_2V_2[/tex]

Since we are finding the new volume

[tex]V_2 = \frac{P_1V_1}{P_2} \\[/tex]

So we have

[tex]V_2 = \frac{250 \times 105200}{100300} \\ = 262.213359...[/tex]

We have the final answer as

262.21 mL

Hope this helps you
