Answer:
The new pressure inside the container is 394.48 Pa.
Explanation:
Given that,
Pressure = 550.0 kPa
Temperature = 25.0°C
Initial volume = 5.20 L
Final volume = 7.25 L
We need to calculate the new pressure inside the container
Using Boyle's law
PV = constant
[tex]P_{1}V_{1}=P_{2}V_{2}[/tex]
Where, P₁ = Pressure
V₁ = Initial volume
V₂ = Initial volume
Put the volume into the formula
[tex]550\times5.20=P_{2}\times7.25[/tex]
[tex]P_{2}=\dfrac{550\times5.20}{7.25}[/tex]
[tex]P_{2}=394.48\ Pa[/tex]
Hence, The new pressure inside the container is 394.48 Pa.
