Gas Volume and Pressure Calculations

The document presents a series of sample gas law problems involving changes in pressure and volume of gases. Each problem requires the application of gas laws to determine the new volume or pressure under varying conditions. The scenarios include calculations for CO2, a gas sample in a piston, and an inflated basketball.

Sample problem #1

A container holds 500mL of


CO2 with a pressure of 742 torr.
What will be the volume of the
CO2 if the pressure is increased
to 795 torr?

Sample problem #3
A gas sample with an initial
volume of 2.50 L is at a pressure
of 1.20 atm. If the gas is
compressed to a final volume of
1.00 L, what will be the new
pressure?
Sample Problem #4
A basketball is inflated to a
volume of 8.00 liters at a
pressure of 1.20 atm. If the
pressure inside the ball increases
to 1.50 atm, what will be the new
volume of the basketball?

Sample problem #2
A gas occupies 300 mL at a
pressure of 500 torr. If the
pressure is decreased to 250
torr, what will be the new
volume?
Sample Problem #5
A gas sample in a piston has an
initial pressure of 900 mmHg
and occupies a volume of 250
mL. If the volume is expanded to
450 mL, what will be the new
pressure of the gas?
