A fixed amount of gas at 25.0°C occupies a volume of 10.0 L when the pressure is 751 torr. Use Boyle's law to calculate the pressure (torr) when the volume is reduced to 9.25 L at a constant temperature of 25.0°C.

Respuesta :

Answer:

811.89 torr

Explanation:

According to Boyle's Law ,

At a constant temperature , Product of Pressure and volume of the gas remains constant for a fixed Amount of gas.

Thus,

[tex]P_{1}[/tex][tex]V_{1}[/tex]=   [tex]P_{2}[/tex][tex]V_{2}[/tex]

Here,

[tex]P_{1}[/tex] = 751 torr

[tex]V_{1}[/tex] = 10.0L

[tex]V_{2}[/tex] = 9.25 L

Thus,

751×10 = 9.25×[tex]P_{2}[/tex]

[tex]P_{2}[/tex] = 811.89 torr.
