4. A gas exerts a pressure of 7 kPa on the wall of the container. When the container is emptied into a 15 L container, the pressure exerted by
the gas increases to 17 kPa. Find the volume of the first container.
Assume temperature stays constant.

36 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Step 2: Calculate the volume of the first container

If we assume ideal behavior and constant temperature, we can calculate the volume of the first container using Boyle's law.

P₁ × V₁ = P₂ × V₂

V₁ = P₂ × V₂ / P₁

V₁ = 17 kPa × 15 L / 7 kPa = 36 L
