Algebra.Com's Answer #751733 by Alan3354(69443)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The volume of a gas V held at a constant temperature in a closed container varies inversely with its pressure P. If the volume of a gas is 300 cubic centimeters when the pressure is 500 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg), find the volume when the pressure is 150 mm Hg \n" ); document.write( "-------------- \n" ); document.write( "P*V = k \n" ); document.write( "500*100 = k = 50000 \n" ); document.write( "======== \n" ); document.write( "150*V = 50000 \n" ); document.write( "V = 50000/150 = 1000/3 cc \n" ); document.write( "==================== \n" ); document.write( " |
