Answer:
0.67 atm
Explanation:
From the question,
Applying Boyles law
PV = P’V’……………………. Equation 1
Where P = Initial Pressure of the sample of gas, P’ = Final pressure of the sample of gas, V = Initial volume of the sample of gas, V’ = Final volume of the sample of gas.
make P’ the subject of the equation above
P’ = PV/V’……………….. Equation 2
Given: P = 10.0 L, V = 1.0 atm, V’ = 15.0 L
Substitute these values into equation 2
P’ = (10.0×1.0)/15.0
P’ = 0.67 atm
