The volume of a gas is 250ml at 3.6 atm. What will the volume be when the pressure is reduced to 0.75 atm?

V₂ = 1200 mL

Explanation:

Given dа ta:

Volume of gas = 250 mL

Pressure of gas = 3.6 atm

Final pressure = 0.75 atm

Final volume = ?

Solution:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

V₂ = P₁V₁ / P₂

V₂ = 3.6 atm. 250 mL / 0.75 atm

V₂ = 900 atm. mL / 0.75 atm

V₂ = 1200 mL
