Question

6.0 L of gas in a piston at a pressure of 1.0 atm are compressed until the volume is 3.5 L. What is the new pressure inside the piston?

Answer 1

From the calculations and by the use of Boyles law, the new pressure of the gas is 1.7 atm

What are gas laws?

The term gas law is used to demonstrate the relationship between the volume, pressure, number of moles and temperature of a gas.

Using the Boyles law;

P1 = 1 atm

P2 = ?

V1 = 6 L

V2 = 3.5 L

P1V1= P2V2

P2= P1V1/V2

P2= 1 atm * 6 L/3.5 L

= 1.7 atm
