A 15.0 L tank of gas is contained at a high pressure of 8.20 x 10^4 torr. The tank is opened and the gas expands into an empty chamber with a volume of 6.00 x 10^4 L. Calculate the new pressure of the gas.

20.5torr

Explanation:

Given parameters:

V₁  = 15L

P₁  = 8.2 x 10⁴torr

V₂ = 6 x 10⁴L

Unknown:

P₂  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem we have to apply the claims of Boyle's law.

Boyle's law is given mathematically as;

            P₁ V₁   = P₂V₂

where P₁ is the initial pressure

          V₁ is the initial volume

           P₂ is final pressure

           V₂ is final volume

   8.2 x 10⁴  x 15  = P₂  x 6 x 10⁴

         P₂  = 20.5torr
