A sample of oxygen gas at a pressure of 0.656 atm and a temperature of 27.2 °C, occupies a volume of 10.7 liters. If the gas is allowed to expand at constant temperature to a volume of 13.1 liters, the pressure of the gas sample will be atm. Fill in the blank.

The correct answer is 0.536 atm.

Explanation:

The formula to use to solve the given question is,

P1V1 = P2V2

Based on the given information, the initial pressure (P1) of the oxygen gas is 0.656 atm, the initial volume (V1) is 10.7 L. The new volume (V2) given is 13.1 L, there is a need to find the new pressure of the gas (P2).

Now putting the values in the above equation we get,

0.656 atm * 10.7 L = P2 * 13.1 L

P2 = 0.656 atm*10.7 L/13.1 L

P2 = 0.536 atm

the earth would become to overheated and everything alive on it will eventually die from overheating. plants will eventually die as well, water will evaporate, and it will be nothing but a hot planet without anything living on it.
