Chapter 5, Problem 5.21QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Pressure of the gas has to be calculated, when the volume is changed as $\text{5}\text{.80L to }9.65\text{L}$.

Concept Introduction:

Boyle’s law is given by,

$\frac{{\text{P}}_{\text{1}}{\text{V}}_{\text{1}}}{{\text{n}}_{\text{1}}{\text{T}}_{\text{1}}}\text{=}\frac{{\text{P}}_{\text{2}}{\text{V}}_{\text{2}}}{{\text{n}}_{\text{2}}{\text{T}}_{\text{2}}}$

If temperature and mole is constant, the equation becomes,

${\text{P}}_{\text{1}}{\text{V}}_{\text{1}}={\text{P}}_{\text{2}}{\text{V}}_{\text{2}}$

Where,

  ${\text{P}}_{\text{1}}$ is the initial pressure.

  ${\text{P}}_2$ is the final pressure

  ${\text{V}}_{\text{1}}$ is initial volume.

  ${\text{V}}_2$ is final volume.

  $\text{n}$ is the number of mole.
