If a sample of CO gas at 1.977 atm has a volume of 517.4 mL and the pressure is changed to
3.063 atm, then what will be the new volume of the CO gas, in milliliters?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer to your question is V2 = 333.9 ml

Explanation:

Data

Pressure 1 = P1 = 1.977 atm

Volume 1 = V1 = 517.4 ml

Pressure 2 = P2 = 3.063 atm

Volume 2 = V2 = ?

Process

To solve this problem use Boyle's law

              P1V1 = P2V2

-Solve for V2

              V2 = P1V1/P2

-Substitution

              V2 = (1.977 x 517.4) / 3.063

-Simplification

              V2 = 1022.9 / 3.063

-Result

              V2 = 333.9 ml
