Question

At 46°C a sample of ammonia gas exerts a pressure of 3.51 atm. What is the pressure when the volume of the gas is reduced to one-third of the original value at the same temperature?

Answer 1

intial                                                      Final

P1 = 3.51atm                                       P2 =

V1   = V                                                  V2   = V/3

P1V1    =   P2V2

   P2       = P1V1/V2

              = 3.51*V/V/3

             = 3.51*3    = 10.53atm >>>>>answer
