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

Ok so boyle's law!

\[p_1v_1=p_2v_2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So what is your initial pressure and volume?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3*4=7v? is that the equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yup!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

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