The gas with an initial volume of 24.0 L at a pressure of 565 torr is compressed until the volume is 16.0 L. What is the final pressure of the gas, assuming the temperature and amount of gas does not change

848 torr  

Explanation:

The only variables are the pressure and the volume, so we can use Boyle's Law.

p₁V₁ = p₂V₂

Data:

p₁ = 565 torr; V₁ = 24.0 L

p₂ = ?;            V₂ =  16.0 L

Calculations:

conduction is the transfer of thermal energy (heat in transfer) due to collisions between the molecules in the object. collisions between adjacent atoms and molecules transfer kinetic energy from the warmer to the cooler object. the objects must be in physical contact.
