Question 1134366: 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 Answer by Alan3354(69443) (Show Source):
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
--------------
P*V = k
500*100 = k = 50000
========
150*V = 50000
V = 50000/150 = 1000/3 cc
