    Answer:3.40L

    Explanation:

    p1v1=p2v2

    P1=2.5atm

    V1 = 4.5L

    P2=3.3atm

    V2=?

    P1V1/P2=V2

    V2=2.5*4.5/3.3

    V2 = 11.25/3.3

    V2=3.40L

    Answer: V = 3.4 L

    Explanation: Use Boyle's Law to find the new volume. P1V1 = P2V2, derive for V2, then the formula will be V2 = P1V1 / P2

    V2 = 2.5 atm (4.5 L) / 3.3 atm

    = 3.4 L
