help with charles/boyle’s law?
Atmospheric pressure on the peak of Mt. Everest can be as low as 150 mm Hg, which is why climbers need to bring oxygen tanks for the last part of the climb. If the climbers carry 10.0 liter tanks with an internal gas pressure of 3.04 x 104 mm Hg, what will be the volume of the gas when it is released from the tanks?
Helppp plzz?
You must assume that the temperature does not change.
P1V1 = P2V2
150 mm Hg x V1 = 3.01×10^4 mm Hg x 10.0 L
V1 = 2007 liters
