Solution

  • P1 = 304 cm of Hg
  • V1 = 600cm³

now let

  • V2 = 600 + 300= 900cm³
  • P2 = ?

The relationship for Boyle’s Law can be expressed as follows: P1V1=P2V2 , where P1 and V1are the initial pressure and volume values, and P1 and V2 are the values of the pressure and volume of the gas after change.

  • P1V1=P2V2
  • P2=P1V1/V2
  • P2 = 600 × 304 / 900
  • P2= 202.67 cm of Hg

The pressure of Hydrogen gas is 202.67 cm of Hg
