A sample of oxygen had an initial volume of 4.0L and was at a standard pressure of 10 atm, what would the new volume be if the pressure was increased to 25.00atm?

The new volume would be 1.6 L

How to calculate the new volume of a substance if pressure changes?

The best way to calculate the volume of a substance in this situation is to use Boyle's law:

  • P1V1 = P2V2

In this formula, the initial pressure multiplied by the initial volume is equivalent to the second pressure multiplied by the volume.

Let's now use the values given:

  • P1V1 = P2V2
  • 10atm x 4 L = 25atm x V2
  • V2 = 10 atm x 4 L / 25 atm
  • V2= 40 /25
  • V2 = 1.6 L
