Answer:
0.0478 L
Explanation:
Given data
- Initial volume (V₁): 1.91 L
- Initial pressure (P₁): 1.00 atm
- Final volume (V₂): ?
- Final pressure (P₂): 40.0 atm
We can find the final volume of an ideal gas using Boyle´s law.
P₁ × V₁ = P₂ × V₂
V₂ = P₁ × V₁ / P₂
V₂ = 1.00 atm × 1.91 L / 40.0 atm
V₂ = 0.0478 L
The final volume is 0.0478 L = 47.8 mL.
Answer:
The new volume is 47.8 mL
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
The initial pressure of the gas = 1.00 atm
The initial volume of the gas = 1.91 L
The pressure increased to 40.0 atm
Step 2: Calculate the new volume
P1*V1 = P2*V2
⇒with P1 = the initial pressure of the gas = 1.00 atm
⇒with V2 = the initial volume = 1.91 L
⇒with P2 = the increased pressure = 40.0 atm
⇒with V2 = the new volume = TO BE DETERMINED
1.00 atm * 1.91 L = 40.0 atm * V2
V2 = (1.91 atm* L / 40.0 atm)
V2 = 0.0478 L = 47.8 mL
The new volume is 47.8 mL
When the pressure increases 40x, the volume will decrease 40x
