A sample of nitrogen gas (N2) has a volume of 24ml and a pressure of 420 cm H8. When the gas is released, it gives 64 ml of nitrogen. If the temperature is the same, what is the new pressure of nitrogen?
Answer (1)
Since the nitrogen gas has a volume of 24 ml and a pressure of 420 cm H8, whereas it gives 64 ml of nitrogen. Use Boyle's Law in solving this formula.V1 - 24 mlP1 - 420 cmV2 - 64 mlP2 - ?FORMULA:(V1) (P1) = (V2) (P2)(24 ml) (420 cm) = (64 ml) (P2)10,080 ml cm = P2 64 ml-------------------------------------64 ml. 64 mlThe new pressure of nitrogen when released from the gas can is 157.5 cm
