Question

a large irregularly shaped closed tank is first evacuated and then connected to a 55 cylinder containing compressed nitrogen gas the gas pressure in the cylinder originally at 21.3 ATM false 21.5 ATM after it is connected to the evacuated tank calculate the volume of the tank in litres

Answer 1

Answer:

54.4 L.

Explanation:

From the question we will get that the volume of cylinder after connecting to the second tank after evacuation will be will be = 55 L while the pressure of the cylinder will be = 21.3 atm and the pressure of tank will be = 21.5 atm. So, the volume of tank will be.

On applying the Boyle's Law we will get that the :-

P1V1 = P2V2.

21.3 x 55 = 21.5 x V2.

So, on solving we will get that the V2=54.4L.
