Answer:
0.5 L
Explanation:
V1 (initial volume) = 4 L
P1 (initial pressure) = 2.5 kPa
P2 (final pressure) = 20 kPa
V2 (final volume) = ?
Use Boyle's law P1V1 = P2V2, to find the the final volume
P1V1 = P2V2
2.5 x 4 = 20 x V2
Divide both side by 20
V2 = (2.5 x 4)/20
V2 = 0.5 L
Answer: 0.5L
Explanation:
Using Boyle's law
P1V1=P2V2
P1= 2.5kpa
V1= 4l
V2= ?
P2= 20.0kpa
Substitute the value into this formula
P1V1=P2V2
2.5×4=20×V2
Cross multiply
2.5×4=20V2
V2= 2.5×4/20
V2= 80/2.5
V2= 0.5L
So 0.5L of gas will occupy 20.0kpa
