pv=nrT Initial state (1.8atm) (22.0 l) = n (0.082057) (26.4+273.15); r=.082057, and converting C to K Solving for n = (1.8) (22) / (.082057 * (26.4+273.15) moles n = 1.611 moles in initial state Now we solve for new volume pv=nrT (.8atm) v = (1.611) (.082057) (20.3+273.15) v = (1.611) (.082057) (20.3+273.15) /.8 v=48.49 l
