Concept Introduction:
The final volume of the gas at the constant temperature can be calculated using Boyle’s law, which states the relationship between pressure and volume of the gas.
According to Boyle’s Law, the volume of fixed amount of gas is inversely proportional to the pressure of the gas at constant temperature. Mathematically, it is given as.
We two different sets of volume and pressure of the gas is considered, the above equation becomes as follows:

- 5-35 A 26.4-mL sample of ethylene gas, C2H4, has a pressure of 2.50 atm at 2.5°C. If the volume is increased to 36.2 mL and the temperature is raised to 10°C, what is the new pressure?arrow_forward5-16 Answer true or false. (a) For a sample of gas at constant temperature, its pressure multiplied by its volume is a constant. (b) For a sample of gas at constant temperature, increasing the pressure increases the volume. (c) For a sample of gas at constant temperature, (d) As a gas expands at constant temperature, its volume increases. (e) The volume of a sample of gas at constant pressure is directly proportional to its temperature—the higher its temperature, the greater its volume. (f) A hot-air balloon rises because hot air is less dense than cooler air. (g) For a gas sample in a container of fixed volume, an increase in temperature results in an increase in pressure. (h) For a gas sample in a container of fixed volume, is a constant. (i) When steam at 100°C in an autoclave is heated to 1200C, the pressure within the autoclave increases. (j) When a gas sample in a flexible container at constant pressure at 25°C is heated to 50°C, its volume doubles. (k) Lowering the diaphragm causes the chest cavity to increase in volume and the pressure of air in the lungs to decrease. (l) Raising the diaphragm decreases the volume of the chest cavity and forces air out of the lungs.arrow_forward113 A 0.0125-g sample of a gas with an empirical formula of CHF2 is placed in a 165-mL flask.
