Question

The volume V of a gas varies inversely as pressure P is exerted. If V = 4 liters when P = 3 atmospheres, find V when P = 7 atmospheres. Note: Round your answer to the nearest hundredth

Answer 1

Ok so boyle's law!

Answer 2

\[p_1v_1=p_2v_2\]

Answer 3

So what is your initial pressure and volume?

Answer 4

3*4=7v? is that the equation

Answer 5

Yup!

Answer 6

okay and so if we're rounding to the nearest hundredth id be 1.71 liters right?

Answer 7

yes
