How do you find the new pressure of a container with two different volumes and pressures while also being at the same temp?
PV = nRT ideal gas equation
T is same . R is constant
PV = constant
Initial
pressure = P1
volume =V1
P1V1 = constant ---------->1
Final
pressure = P2
volume = V2
P2V2 = constant ------------>2
from 1 and 2
P1V1 = P2V2
final or new pressure
P2 = P1V1/V2 >>>>answer
