Answer:
The volume of the gas at a pressure of 65.0 kPa would be 363 mL
Explanation:
Boyle's Law is a gas law that relates the pressure and volume of a certain amount of gas, without temperature variation, that is, at constant temperature.
Boyle's law states that the pressure of a gas in a closed container is inversely proportional to the volume of the container, when the temperature is constant. In other words, the product P · V remains constant at the same temperature:
P*V=k
Being P1 and V1 the pressure and volume in state 1 and P2 and V2 the pressure and volume in state 2 are fulfilled:
P1*V1=P2*V2
In this case:
Replacing:
45,000 Pa* 0.525 L= 65,000 Pa*V2
Solving:
[tex]V2=\frac{45,000 Pa* 0.525 L}{65,000 Pa}[/tex]
V2=0.363 L=363 mL
The volume of the gas at a pressure of 65.0 kPa would be 363 mL
