The gas in a 350 mL balloon has a pressure of 0.85 atm. If the temperature remains constant, what will be the pressure of the gas in the balloon if the volume increases to 450 mL?

Answer:

0.66 atm

Explanation:

The new pressure can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

[tex]P_1V_1 = P_2V_2[/tex]

where

P1 is the initial pressure

P2 is the final pressure

V1 is the initial volume

V2 is the final volume

Since we're finding the new pressure

[tex]P_2 = \frac{P_1V_1}{V_2} \\[/tex]

We have

[tex]P_2 = \frac{350 \times 0.85}{450} = \frac{297.5}{450} \\ = 0.661111...[/tex]

We have the final answer as

0.66 atm

Hope this helps you
