    States that when a gas is held at a constant temperature and mass in a closed container, the volume and pressure vary inversely. The equation to use is P1V1=P2V2.

    Given

    V1=200mL*1L1000mL=0.2 L

    P1=700 mmHg

    V2=100mL*1L1000mL=0.1 L

    Unknown

    P2

    Equation

    P1V1=P2V2

    Solution

    Rearrange the equation to isolate P2 and solve.

    P2=P1V1V2

    P2 = (700mmHg*0.2L) 0.1L=1400 L, which must be rounded to 1000 L because all of the measurements have only one significant figure.
