A capsule containing 0.500 L of air at 1.00 atm is compressed to 3.25 atm. At that point, what is the volume of the gas in the capsule?

V₂ = 0.154 Liters

Explanation:

Pressure => P

Volume   => V

Temperature => T

mass (moles) => n

This problem...

P₁ = 1.00 ATM     P₂ = 3.25 ATM

V₁ = 0.500L       V₂ = ?

T₁ =  constant    T₂ = T₁ = constant

n₁ =  constant     n₂= n₁ = constant

P₁V₁/n₁T₁ = P₂V₂/n₂T₂  => V₂ = V₁(P₁/P₂) = 0.500L (1.00ATM/3.25ATM) = 0.154 Liters
