The effect of high pressure on organisms, including humans, is studied to gain information about deep-sea diving and anaesthesia. A sample of air occupies 1 L at 25 0C and 1 atm. What pressure is needed to compress it to 100 cm3 at this temperature?

Answer Given: V1=1dm3=1 lit.V2= 75cm3 =75 ×10-6P1= l atm.P2=?As, temperature is constant here, so, according to Boyle’s law:P1V1=P2V2P2=P1V1/V21×1/75 ×10-6=1/75 ×10-6=0.0133×10+6...
