An air bubble with a volume of 5.0 ml is released at the bottom of a lake where the pressure is 3.0 atm. when it reaches the surface, the bubble experiences a pressure of 1.0 atm. what is the volume of the air bubble when it reaches the surface?

- Volume will be 15 mL.

Solution:- If we look at the given information then it is Boyle's law as the temperature is constant and the volume changes inversely as the pressure changes.

The equation used for solving this type of problems is:

= 3.0 atm

= 5.0 mL

= 1.0 atm

= ?

Let's plug in the values in the equation:

= 15 mL

So, the volume of the air bubble at the surface will be 15 mL.

radioactive decay occurs in unstable atomic nuclei – that is, ones that don't have enough binding energy to hold

the nucleus together due to an excess of either protons or neutrons.
