A3.00 l flexible container holds a sample of hydrogen gas at 153 kpa. if the pressure increases to 203 kpa and the temperature remains constant, what will the volume be?

To solve this we assume that the gas is an ideal gas. Then, we can use the ideal gas equation which is expressed as PV = nRT. At a constant temperature and number of moles of the gas the product of PV is equal to some constant. At another set of condition of temperature, the constant is still the same. Calculations are as follows:

P1V1 =P2V2

V2 = P1 V1 / P2

V2 = 153 x 3.00 / 203

V2 = 2.26 L
