Filling a cartire with compressed air pressure ranging from 30-35 psi. As you put more
and more air into the tire, you are forcing all the gas molecules to get packed
together, reducing their volume and increasing the pressure pushing the walls of the
tire.
Sample Problem:
A balloonwith a volume of 2.0 L is filled with a gas at 3 atmospheres. If the pressure is
reduced to 0.5 atmospheres without a change in temperature, what would be the
volume of a balloon?
Given:
P1 = 3 atm
P2 = 0.5 atm
V1 = 2.0 L
V2 = ?
V2 = (3 atm) (2.0L)
0.5 atm
12L
P2 = 0.5 atm

Sample Problem:
An idealgas occupying a 20.0 L flask at 1 atm is allowed to expand to a volume of 6.0L.
Calculate the final pressure in atm.
Given:
P1 = 1.00 atm
P2 = ?
V1 = 2.0 L
V2 = 6.0 L
P2 = (1.00 atm) (2.0L)
6.0 L
0.33 atm
