a balloon filled with a volume of 1.50 L is compressed to a volume of 0.50 L at a constant rate of temperature. if the initial pressure of the gas inside the balloon was 1.65 atm what is the new pressure?

Answer :

Answer:

New pressure P2 = 4.95 atm

Explanation:

Given:

Old volume V1 = 1.50 L

New volume V2 = 0.50 L

Old pressure P1 = 1.65 atm

Find:

New pressure P2

Computation:

P1V1 = P2V2

So,

(1.50)(1.65) = (0.50)(P2)

New pressure P2 = 4.95 atm
