the pressure of gas in a cylinder is 70 kilopascals. if the volume of the cylinder is reduced from 8.0 liters to 4.0 liters, what should be the pressure of the gas in the cylinder?

Respuesta :

By Boyle's law:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

70*8 = P₂*4

P₂*4 = 70*8

P₂ = 70*8/4 = 140

P₂ = 140 kiloPascals.

Answer:

140 kilopascals
