Chapter 8: Q. 8.21 (page 267)

Cyclopropane, C3H6, is a general anesthetic. A 5.0-L sample has a pressure of 5.0 atm. What is the final volume, in liters, of this gas given to a patient at a pressure of 1.0 atm with no change in temperature and amount of gas?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The final volume, in liters, of this gas given to a patient at a pressure of 1.0atm with no change in temperature and amount of gas is 25.0L.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

We need to find the final volume of gas which has been given to patient.

02

Explanation

As the temperature is constant so we can apply Boyle's law

P1V1=P2V2

Now given values are,

P1=5.0atm

V1=5.0L

P2=1.0atm

Substituting the given values we get,

localid="1653572030384" V2=5.0atm×5.0L1.0atm=25.0L

So the final volume, in liters, of this gas given to a patient at a pressure of1.0atmwith no change in temperature and amount of gas is25.0L
