Question
What will be the minimum pressure required to compress 500 dm3 of air at 1 bar to 200 dm3 temperature remaining constant?
Solution
V1 = 500 dm3
P1 = 1 bar
T1 = 273 K
V2 = 500 dm3
T2 = 273 K
P2= ?
`("P"_1 "V"_1)/"T"_1 = ("P"_2 "V"_2)/"T"_2`
`(500 xx 1)/273 = ("P"_2 xx 200)/273`
`"P"_2 = 500/200 = 2.5` bar

88 cm3 of nitrogen is at a pressure of 770 mm mercury. If the pressure is raised to 880 mmHg, find by how much the volume will diminish, the temperature remaining constant.
It is found that on heating a gas its volume increases by 50% and its pressure decreases to 60% of its original value. If the original temperature was -15°C, find the temperature to which it was heated.
