5. If the volume of a gas is 490mL at 2.4atmn, what will the new volume be ir pressure decreases 1.5atm?

The answer is

Explanation:

In order to find the new volume attained we use the formula for Boyle's law

That's

Since we are finding the final volume

where

P1 is the initial pressure

P2 is the final pressure

V1 is the initial volume

V2 is the final volume

From the question

P1 = 2.4 atm

V1 = 490 mL

P2 = 1.5 atm

So we have

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

784mL

Explanation:

The formula is [ fv = (ip)(iv)/(fp) ]

We are given ip, iv, and fp. So, solve for fv.

fv = (2.4)(490)/(1.5)

fv = 1176/1.5

fv = 784

Best of Luck!
