Question

Once you’ve identified the initial and final conditions, you’re ready to solve for the unknown quantity in your problem. Boyle’s Law expresses the pressure-volume relationship as P1V1=P2V2, so you will need to solve this equation for the unknown quantity and then plug in your known values to calculate the unknown.

What pressure would it take to compress 350. L of helium gas initially at 1.00 atm into a 2.00 L tank at constant temperature?
