A 100 ml sample of gas at 200 kPa is squeezed into a 10 ml container. What is
the new pressure inside the container?

Answer :

Answer:

2000 kPa

Explanation:

The new pressure can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

[tex]P_1V_1 = P_2V_2[/tex]

Since we're finding the new pressure

[tex]P_2 = \frac{P_1V_1}{V_2} \\[/tex]

From the question we have

[tex]P_2 = \frac{100 \times 200000}{10} = \frac{20000000}{10} \\ = 2000000[/tex]

We have the final answer as

2,000,000 Pa = 2000 kPa

Hope this helps you
