A 1.00 L sample of a gas at a pressure of 1.000atm is compressed to 0.25 L at a constanttemperature. What is the new pressure of the gas?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is 4 atm

Explanation:

The new pressure can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

[tex]P_1V_1 = P_2V_2[/tex]

Since we are finding the new pressure

[tex]P_2 = \frac{P_1V_1}{V_2} \\[/tex]

From the question we have

[tex]P_2 = \frac{1 \times 1}{0.25} = \frac{1}{0.25} \\ [/tex]

We have the final answer as

4 atm

Hope this helps you
