A gas occupies 12.3 liters at a pressure of 40.0 mmHg. What is the volume when the pressure is
increased to 60.0 mmHg?
x = 8.20 L
Problem #2: If a gas at 25.0 °C occupies 3.60 liters at a pressure of 1.00 atm, what will be its volume at a
pressure of 2.50 atm?
x = 1.44 L
Problem #3: To what pressure must a gas be compressed in order to get into a 3.00 cubic foot tank the
entire weight of a gas that occupies 400.0 cu. ft. at standard pressure?
x = 133 atm
It doesn't matter what the volume units are. It just matters that they be the same on each side.
Problem #4: A gas occupies 1.56 L at 1.00 atm. What will be the volume of this gas if the pressure
becomes 3.00 atm?
Problem #5: A gas occupies 11.2 liters at 0.860 atm. What is the pressure if the volume becomes 15.0 L?
x = 0.642 atm
Problem #6: 500.0 mL of a gas is collected at 745.0 mmHg. What will the volume be at standard
pressure?
x = 490.1 mL
Problem #7: Convert 350.0 mL at 740.0 mmHg to its new volume at standard pressure.
Problem #8: Convert 338 L at 63.0 atm to its new volume at standard pressure.
Problem #9: Convert 273.15 mL at 166.0 kPa to its new volume at standard pressure.
Problem #10: Convert 77.0 L at 18.0 mmHg to its new volume at standard pressure.
Problem #11: When the pressure on a gas increases, will the volume increase or decrease?
Volume will decrease.
Problem #12: If the pressure on a gas is decreased by one-half, how large will the volume change be?
Problem #13: A gas occupies 4.31 liters at a pressure of 0.755 atm. Determine the volume if the pressure
is increased to 1.25 atm.
Problem #14: 600.0 mL of a gas is at a pressure of 8.00 atm. What is the volume of the gas at 2.00 atm?
Problem #15: 400.0 mL of a gas are under a pressure of 800.0 torr. What would the volume of the gas be
at a pressure of 1000.0 torr?
