Question

896 mL of an ideal gas at 760 torr is compressed to 561 mL at constant temperature. What is the new pressure?

science chemistry

Answer 1

Answer #1

P1V1 = P2V2

where, P1 = 760 torr = 1 atm

V1 = 896 mL = 0.896 L

P2 = ?

V2 = 561 mL = 0.561 L

1 * 0.896 = P2 * 0.561

0.896 = P2 * 0.561

P2 = 0.896 / 0.561 = 1.60 atm

Therefore, the new pressure = 1.60 atm

A sample of gas at 760 torr and 2.8 L is compressed at constant temperature to the pressure at 3.5 atm. What is the final volume of the gas? My biggest problem with answering this question is the fact that I don't know what the "constant temperature" is..I know I'm using the combined gas law with formula: V2= p1v1/t1p2 * T2 and that p1=760 torr or 1 atm, v1=2.8L and p2=3.5 atm... Any help on this is very much appreciated.
