Asample of gas occupies 9.0 ml at a pressure of 500 mmhg. a new volume of the same sample is at 750 mmhg. use two significant figures in answer on volume. is the new pressure smaller or larger than the original? therefore, is the new volume larger or smaller than 9.0 ml? what is this new volume? ml

                   The New pressure (750 mmHg) is greater than the original pressure (500 mmHg) hence, the new volume (6.0 mL) is smaller than the original volume (9.0 mL).

              According to Boyle's Law, " The Volume of a given mass of gas at constant temperature is inversely proportional to the applied Pressure". Mathematically, the initial and final states of gas are given as,

                                     P₁ V₁  =  P₂ V₂     (1)

Data Given;

                  P₁  =  500 mmHg

                  V₁  =  9.0 mL

                  P₂  =  750 mmHg

                  V₂  =  ??

Solving equation 1 for V₂,

                   V₂  =  P₁ V₁ / P₂

Putting values,

                   V₂  =  (500 mmHg × 9.0 mL) ÷ 750 mmHg

                   V₂  =  6.0 mL

            The New pressure (750 mmHg) is greater than the original pressure (500 mmHg) hence, the new volume (6.0 mL) is smaller than the original volume (9.0 mL).

the leaf is an organ of a typical plant, and the main functions are to complete photosynthesis and allow the plant to exchange gas, just like how we have the respiratory system. leaves have the stomata, which collects maintains co2 and o2 levels. this is necessary for cell metabolism. the leaf also collects sunlight using chloroplasts. succinctly, leaves own a pivotal role in sustaining plant life.
