A sample of Ne gas has a pressure of 654 mmHg with an unknown volume. The gas has a pressure of 345 mmHg when the volume is 495 mL, with no change in temperature or amount of gas. What was the initial volume, in milliliters, of the gas?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The initial volume of the gas was261ml.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

We need to find the initial volume of the gas in millilitres.

02

Explanaiton

As the temperature is not changing so we can apply Boyle's law

P1V1=P2V2

Now,

localid="1653571918071" P1=654mmHg

localid="1653571910388" P2=345mmHg

localid="1653571945933" V2=495ml

Substituting the given values we get,

localid="1653571937937" role="math" V1=345mmHg×495ml654mmHg=261ml

So the initial value of gas was261ml
