5. A sample of gas occupies 1.55 L at 27 degrees Celsius and 1.00 atm pressure. What will the volume be if the pressure is increased to 50.0 atm, but the temperature is kept constant?

    The volume will be 0.031 L

    Explanation:

    Since temperature is constant, Boyle's law is applied in this case.

    Boyle's law States that at constant temperature, the volume of a given mass of a gas is inversely proportional to it's pressure.

    From this statement it was deduced that P1V1 = P2V2

    From the question, P1 = 1atm, V1 = 1.55L, P2 = 50 atm and V2 is to be calculated.

    V2 = P1V1/P2

    = 1*1.55:50

    =0.031 L
