Answer:
Explanation:
The final pressure can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is
[tex]P_1V_1 = P_2V_2[/tex]
Since we are finding the new pressure
[tex]P_2 = \frac{P_1V_1}{V_2} \\[/tex]
From the question we have
[tex]P_2 = \frac{2.5 \times 1.6}{8.6} = \frac{4}{8.6} \\ = 0.465116...[/tex]
We have the final answer as
Hope this helps you
