Answer:

The answer to your question is V2 = 10109 l

Explanation:

Data

Volume 1 = 15500 l

Pressure 1 = 1.5 atm

Volume 2 = ?

Pressure 2 = 2.3 atm

Process

To solve this problem use Boyle's law, substitute the values and simplify to get the result.

                  P1V1 = P2V2

-Solve for V2

                  V2 = P1V1 / P2

-Substitution

                  V2 = (15500 x 1.5) / 2.3

-Simplification

                  V2 = 23250 / 2.3

-Result

                  V2 = 10109 l
