A patient's oxygen tank holds 20.0 L of oxygen (02) at a pressure of 15.0 atm. What is the final volume, in liters, of this gas when it is released at a pressure of 1.00 atm with no change in temperature and amount of gas?
A scuba diver below the ocean surface inhales of compressed air from a ccuba tank at a pressure of and a temperature of . What is the final pressure of air, in atmospheres, in the lungs when the gas expands to at a body temperature of , if the amount of gas does not change?
Cyclopropane, C3H6, is a general anesthetic. A 5.0-L sample has a pressure of 5.0 atm. What is the final volume, in liters, of this gas given to a patient at a pressure of 1.0 atm with no change in temperature and amount of gas?
