A balloon filled with helium occupies a volue of 1.50L at 752 torr and 25^oC. What will be the volume of the balloon at a pressure of 438 torr if there is no change in temperature?

• 438 torr

• Volume 2= V₂

• This is what we are solving for.

• Pressure 1= P₁

• 752 torr

• Volume 1= V₁

• 1.50L

• Pressure 2= P₂

In a typical automobile, the mixture of gasoline and air in a cylinder is compressed from 1.0 atom to 9.5 atm. If the uncompressed volume of the cylinder is 410 mL, what is the volume in mL when the mixture is fully compressed?

• 410mL

• Volume 2= V₂

• This is what we are solving for.

• Pressure 2= P₂

• 1.0 atm

• Pressure 1= P₁

• 9.5 atm

• Volume 1= V₁
