Answer:
The answer to your question is 8,32 L
Explanation:
Data
Pressure 1 = 104.5 kPa
Volume 1 = 3.4 L
Pressure 2 = 42.7 kPa
Volume 2 = ?
Formula
- To solve this problem use the Boyle's law.
P1V1 = P2V2
- Solve for V2
V2 = P1V1 / P2
- Substitution
V2 = (104.5)(3.4) / 42.7
-Simplification
V2 = 355.3 / 42.7
- Result
V2 = 8.32 L
Answer:
The new volume is 8.3 L
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
Initial pressure of balloon = 104.5 kPa = 1.0313348 atm
Volume of the balloon is 3.4 L
The pressure is reduced to 42.7 kPa = 0.4214162 atm
Step 2: Calculate the new volume
p1*V1 = p2 *V2
⇒p1 = the initial pressure in the balloon = 1.0313348 atm
⇒V1 = the initial volume = 3.4 L
⇒p2 = the reduced pressure = 0.4214162 atm
⇒V2 = the new volume
1.0313348 atm * 3.4 L = 0.4214162 * V2
V2 = 8.3 L
The new volume is 8.3 L
