The gas in a cylinder has a volume of 6 liters at a pressure of 113 kPa. The pressure of the gas is increased to 213 kPa. Assuming the temperature remains constant, what would the new volume be?

Question

alphadxg · Answer

P1V1 = P2V2?

Do you think this will work? Since temperature is constant.

alphadxg · Answer

Remember P1 and V1 are the initial Pressure and volume.

alphadxg · Answer

Remember P2 and V2 are the final pressures and volumes.

alphadxg · Answer

If we have an initial volume of 6 liters and a initial pressure of 113kPa.

That means we can plug those in for the initial pressure and volume, right?
