Question

A sample of an ideal gas at 1.00 bar and a volume of 1.25 L was placed in a weighted balloon and dropped into the ocean. As the sample descended, the water pressure compressed the balloon and reduced its volume. When the pressure had increased to 40.0 bar, what was the volume of the sample? Assume the temp was held constant. A sample of an ideal gas at 1.00 bar and a volume of 1.25 L was placed in a weighted balloon and dropped into the ocean.

Assume the temp was held constant.

Explanation / Answer

at constant T

P1V1 = P2V2

V2 = FINAL Volume = 1*1.25/40 = 0.3125 L
