A balloon with a volume of 5.0 L is filled with a gas at 760 tore. If the pressure is reduced to 389 torr without a change in temperature. What will be the volume of the balloon?

Answer:

[tex]V_2=9.97L[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we can apply the Boyle's law in order to understand the pressure-volume relationship as an inversely proportional relationship:

[tex]P_1V_1=P_2V_2[/tex]

Thus, we can solve for the resulting volume at the second state as follows:

[tex]V_2=\frac{P_1V_1}{P_2}=\frac{5.0L*760torr}{389tor} \\\\V_2=9.97L[/tex]

Best regards.
