Chapter 6, Problem 6.83AP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The bag of potato chips on a plane ride appeared to be inflated when taken out this has to be explained and the volume of the bag has to be given.

Concept Introduction:

Boyle’s Law:

At constant temperature, the pressure and the volume of the bag are inversely related.

  $\text{PV=K}$

Where P is pressure

V is volume.

K is the constant.

The volume or pressure of the bag can be calculated using the relation.

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

Where ${\text{P}}_{\text{1}}\text{\&}{\text{V}}_{\text{1}}$ are pressure and volume of bag at initial state.

${\text{P}}_{\text{2}}\text{\&}{\text{V}}_{\text{2}}$ are pressure and volume of bag at final state.
