What pressure is required to compress 196.0 liters of air at 1.00 atmosphere into a cylinder whose volume is 26.0 liters?

if volume of the gas increases, its pressure decreases, and vice versa. mathematically, if the volume of the gas is  

V

1

and its pressure is  

P

1

. Let us suppose that its volume has been increased to  

V

2

, the as per the Boyle's law its pressure will decrease and let us assume the new pressure is  

P

2

.

P

1

V

1

=

P

2

V

2

P

1

= 1 atm

V

1

= 196 L

P

2

= ?

V

2

= 26 L substitute the values;

1 atm x 196 L =  

P

2

x 26 L

P

2

= 1 atm x 196 L / 26 L

P

2

= 196 atm L / 26 L = 7.53 atm

Explanation:

I hope this helps.

it is important to conserve water because there is very limited amount of freshwater here on earth and if we are not smart about how we use it we will only be runnning out of our supply faster than neccessarry.
