Chemistry: Gas Laws Problems!

Answer : The final volume at STP is, 1000 L

Explanation :

According to the Boyle's, law, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of gas at constant temperature and moles of gas.

or,

where,

= initial pressure = 1520 mmHg = 2 atm    (1 atm = 760 mmHg)

= final pressure at STP = 1 atm

= initial volume = 500.0 L

= final volume at STP = ?

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

Therefore, the final volume at STP is, 1000 L
