Definition: How pressure and volume affect the behavior of gases Formula:
P, VA=P_V2
1) If you begin with a gas at a pressure of 1.0 atm and a volume of 2 L, what is the new pressure
if the volume increases to 4.6 L?
P1= 1 atm
P1V1=P2 = (1 atm) (2L) = 0.43atm
V1= 2L
V2
4.6 L
P2= ?
V2= 4.6 L
2) If P1 = 4 atm and V1 = 3 L, what will V2 be if P2=7.3 atm?
