Hospital patients are administered oxygen from an pressurized
hyperbaric oxygen chamber. 600.0 L of oxygen is compressed in a
cylinder at 160.0 atm. What volume of oxygen can a cylinder supply at a
pressure of 3.0 atm?


Sagot :

Answer:

32000atm

Explanation:

Using Boyle's law equation;

P1V1 = P2V2

Where;

P1 = initial pressure (atm)

P2 = final pressure (atm)

V1 = initial volume (

V2 = final volume (L)

According to the question below:

P1 = 160.0 atm

P2 = 3.0 atm

V1 = 600L

V2 = ?

Using P1V1 = P2V2

160 × 600 = 3 × V2

96000 = 3V2

V2 = 96000/3

V2 = 32000atm
