4. The volume of a sample of a gas at STP is 200.0 ml. If the pressure is increased to 4.00 atmospheres (temperature constant), what is the new volume?

Answer : The value of new volume is, 50.0 mL

Explanation :

Boyle's Law : It is defined as the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

or,

where,

= initial pressure at STP = 1 atm

= final pressure =  4.00  atm

= initial volume at STP = 200.0 mL

= final volume = ?

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

Therefore, the value of new volume is, 50.0 mL

hydrocarbons are organic compounds that contain only hydrogens and carbons. they can be saturated (those which contain only carbon-carbon single bonds) or unsaturated (those which contain carbon-carbon double or triple bonds) in nature. hydrocarbons can undergo several reactions like substitution, elimination etc.  

on substituting one or more hydrogen atoms in hydrocarbon it results in the formation of haloalkane. as the halogen atoms are large compared to the carbon and hydrogen atoms, due to which the molecular weight increases and the bond become polar because of presence electronegative halogen atom and results in the increase in boiling point of the haloalkane.

thus, the correct option is (b) that is the boiling point of the new compound increases on substituting a hydrogen atom with a halogen in a hydrocarbon.
