A sample of hydrogen occupies a volume of 3.20L at a pressure of 425 kPa. If the temperature of the gas kept constant, what would be the new volume of the gas at
615 kPa?

Respuesta :

Answer:

2.2 L

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're finding the new volume

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

425 kPa = 425,000 Pa

615 kPa = 615,000 Pa

[tex]V_2 = \frac{3.2 \times 425000}{615000} = \frac{1360000}{615000} \\ = 2.21138...[/tex]

We have the final answer as

2.2 L

Hope this helps you
