A sample of an ideal gas at 1.00 atm and a volume of 1.91 L was placed in a weighted balloon and dropped into the ocean. As the sample descended, the water pressure compressed the balloon and reduced its volume. When the pressure had increased to 40.0 atm , what was the volume of the sample

The new volume is 47.8 mL

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The initial pressure of the gas = 1.00 atm

The initial volume of the gas = 1.91 L

The pressure increased to 40.0 atm

Step 2: Calculate the new volume

P1*V1 = P2*V2

⇒with P1 = the initial pressure of the gas = 1.00 atm

⇒with V2 = the initial volume = 1.91 L

⇒with P2 = the increased pressure = 40.0 atm

⇒with V2 = the new volume = TO BE DETERMINED

1.00 atm * 1.91 L = 40.0 atm * V2

V2 = (1.91 atm* L / 40.0 atm)

V2 = 0.0478 L = 47.8 mL

The new volume is 47.8 mL

When the pressure increases 40x, the volume will decrease 40x

the leaf is an organ of a typical plant, and the main functions are to complete photosynthesis and allow the plant to exchange gas, just like how we have the respiratory system. leaves have the stomata, which collects maintains co2 and o2 levels. this is necessary for cell metabolism. the leaf also collects sunlight using chloroplasts. succinctly, leaves own a pivotal role in sustaining plant life.
