Answer:
111.11 mL
Explanation:
Since the moles of gas and temperature are held constant the new volume can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law
[tex]V_2 = \frac{P_1V_1}{P_2} \\[/tex]
where
P1 is the initial pressure
P2 is the final pressure
V1 is the initial volume
V2 is the final volume
From the question
P1 = 1 atm
P2 = 2.25 atm
V1 = 250 mL
We have
[tex]V_2 = \frac{250 \times 1}{2.25} = \frac{250}{2.25} \\ = 111.1111111...[/tex]
We have the final answer as
111.11 mL
Hope this helps you
