A flexible container holds 1.5 L of gas at a pressure of 3 atm. The volume is adjusted and the new pressure is measured at 2 atm. What is the new volume of the container?

The final volume of the gas is 2.25 L.

Explanation:

Given;

initial volume of the gas, V₁ = 1.5 L

initial pressure of the gas, P₁ = 3 atm

final pressure of the gas, P₂ = 2 atm

final volume of the gas, V₂ = ?

Apply Boyle's law to determine the final volume of the gas;

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

V₂ = (P₁V₁) / P₂

V₂ = (3 x 1.5) / (2)

V₂ = 2.25 L

Therefore, the final volume of the gas is 2.25 L.

what is the question because that is not a question.

double the distance = divide strength by 4
