A certain mass of agas taken in 1 L cylinder exerts a pressure of 500 mm Hg at a certain temperature. If the gas is transferred to another cylinder where it exerts 20 per cent more pressure, calculate the volume of thecylinder at the same temperature.

1.	A certain mass of agas taken in 1 L cylinder exerts a pressure of 500 mm Hg at a certain temperature. If the gas is transferred to another cylinder where it exerts 20 per cent more pressure, calculate the volume of thecylinder at the same temperature.
Answer» SOLUTION :`V_(1) = 1000 CC,P_(1) = 500" mm Of HG"`, `P_(2) = P_(1) +(20P_(1))/(100) = 500 +(20xx500)/100 = 600` mm of Hg `P_(2)V_(2) = P_(1)V_(1),V_(2) = (P_(1)V_(1))/P_(2) = (1000 XX 500)/(600) = 833` cc
