Answer:
143.9 mL
Explanation:
Applying,
PV = P'V'................. Equation 1
Where P = Initial pressure, V = Initial Volume, P' = Final pressure, V' = Final volume.
Make V' The subject of equation 1
V' = PV/P'............. Equation 2
From the question,
Given: P = 0.947 atm, V = 150 mL, P' = 750.12 mm of Hg = (750.12/760) = 0.987 atm,
Substitute these values into equation 2
V' = (0.947×150)/0.987
V' = 143.9 mL
