Explanation:
We start with Boyle's law
- We know its this equation due to the fact that the temperature is constant
We don't need to do any conversions, so we can plug our values in
- Divide the
#6.35atm# on both sides, this will also cancel out the#atm# units, leaving us with#L#
- now multiply
#2.43# by#1.87L# and divide by#6.35#
