Question 1

A student traps a sample of gas inside a sealed syringe.

The initial pressure of the gas ( $P_1$ ) is 110 kPa.

The initial volume of the gas ( $V_1$ ) is 150 cm³.

The syringe plunger is slowly pushed in, keeping the temperature of the gas constant.

The new volume of the gas ( $V_2$ ) is 60 cm³.

Calculate the new pressure of the gas, $P_2$ .

Use the equation:

P_2 = \frac{P_1 \times V_1}{V_2}
