An outdoor grill has a propane (C3H8) tank that holds 4.8 L of gas at a pressure of 5.5 atm. If all of the gas is transferred into an empty container with a volume of 150 L, what is the new pressure of the gas? Assume that the temperature remains constant.

Respuesta :

Answer: 0.176 atm

Explanation: Solution attached:

Use Boyle's Law to find the new pressure of the gas.

P1V1 = P2V2

Derive for P2

P2 = P1V1 / V2

= 5.5 atm ( 4.8 L ) / 150 L

= 0.176 atm
