A container holds 500. mL of CO2 at 20 degrees C and 742 torr. What will be the volume of the CO2 if the pressure is increased to 795 torr?

Solutions

Expert Solution

Volume of CO₂ =V₁ = 500 mL

=0.500 L

Temperature = 20 ^oC

Pressure = P₁ =742 torr = 0.976 atm

=0.976 atm

Pressure of CO₂ =P₂ = 759 torr =

= 0.999 atm

We have to use Boyle's law assuming CO₂ is a ideal gas

Formula for Boyle's law

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

0.976 atm (0.500 L) = 0.999 atm (V₂)

0.488 = 0.999 *V₂

Divide both sides by 0.999

0.488 L = V₂

New volume of CO₂ = V₂ = 488 mL
