Question
If the pressure on a 1.00 -L sample of gas is increased from $760 .$ mm Hg to 2.00 atm at constant temperature, what will the volume of the gas sample become?
Step 1
Mathematically, this can be expressed as $P_1V_1 = P_2V_2$ where $P_1$ and $V_1$ are the initial pressure and volume, and $P_2$ and $V_2$ are the final pressure and volume. Show more…

A 1.04 -L sample of gas at $759 \mathrm{mm}$ Hg pressure is expanded until its volume is 2.24 L. What will be the pressure in the expanded gas sample (at constant temperature)?
A sample of gas occupies 1.55 $\mathrm{L}$ at $27.0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ and 1.00 atm pressure. What will the volume be if the pressure is increased to 50.0 atm, but the temperature is kept constant?

The Gas Laws
A sample of a gas has a pressure of $100 . \mathrm{mm} \mathrm{Hg}$ in a sealed 125 -mL flask. If this gas sample is transferred to another flask with a volume of $200 . \mathrm{mL}$, what will be the new pressure? Assume that the temperature remains constant.
