QUESTION:
At 46°C a sample of ammonia gas exerts a pressure of 5.3 atm. What is the pressure when the volume of the gas is reduced to one-tenth (0.10) of the original value at the same temperature?
ANSWER:Step 1 of 2
Here we have to calculate the final pressure of ammonia gas.
Given:
Temperature is constant.
Let the Initial volume of ammonia gas is \(V_1\)
The final volume is reduced to one-tenth (0.10) of the original volume thus \(V_2\) =0.10 \(V_1\)
Initial pressure = 5.3 atm
