Answer:
The final volume of the gas is 2.25 L.
Explanation:
Given;
initial volume of the gas, V₁ = 1.5 L
initial pressure of the gas, P₁ = 3 atm
final pressure of the gas, P₂ = 2 atm
final volume of the gas, V₂ = ?
Apply Boyle's law to determine the final volume of the gas;
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
V₂ = (P₁V₁) / P₂
V₂ = (3 x 1.5) / (2)
V₂ = 2.25 L
Therefore, the final volume of the gas is 2.25 L.
