Question

[16]. A 3.0 L container holds a sample of hydrogen gas at 150 kPa. If the pressure increases to 2 atm and the temperature remains constant, what will the volume be?
a). 4.50 L
x b). 2.25 L
c). 0.44 L
d). 0.22 L

Answer 1

The volume of the container will be 2.25 L.

The correct option is (b) 2.25 L.

What is Boyle's' law?

This law states that the product of volume and its pressure is constant for any gas.

Given, the Volume 1 of container 3.0L

V2 =?

Pressure 1 is 150 kPa

Increased pressure 2 is 2 atm

Temperature is constant.

Using boyle's law:

P1V1 = P2V2

$\bold{150\times 3 = 2 \times V_2= 225}$

Thus, V2 = 2.25 L.
