Boyle's Law says that the volume of a gas varies inversely with the pressure. When the volume of a certain gas is 4 L, the pressure is 385 kPa (kilopascals). What is the pressure when the volume is 10 L ?

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  154 kPa

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume and pressure are given as inversely related. The volume increases by a factor of 10/4, so the pressure will decrease by the factor 4/10.

  (4/10)(385 kPa) = 154 kPa
