Question 1 Report

A gas occupies a volume of 1.5 liters at a pressure of 2 atmospheres. If the pressure is increased to 4 atmospheres while the temperature remains constant, what will be the new volume of the gas?
Answer Details
According to Boyle's law (for constant temperature), the product of initial pressure and initial volume is equal to the product of final pressure and final volume. Therefore, (1.5 liters) × (2 atmospheres) = (new volume) × (4 atmospheres). Solving for the new volume gives us (new volume) = (1.5 liters × 2 atmospheres) / 4 atmospheres = 0.75 liters.
