Answer to Question #201377 in General Chemistry for Anmarie Jeter

Question

Each of the first 3 cylinders has a volume of 5.0L. If the gases in all 3 cylinders below were combined into one cylinder with a volume of 5.0L at constant temperature, what would the total pressure be?

Answer 1

$P_1V_1= P_2V_2$

$P_1[3×5]= P_2[5]$

$P_1(15)= P_2(5)$

$P_2= 3P_1$
