Answer:

10 L

Explanation:

The new volume can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

[tex]P_1V_1 = P_2V_2[/tex]

From the question we have

[tex]V_2 = \frac{P_1V_1}{P_2} \\[/tex]

From the question we have

[tex]V_2 = \frac{40 \times 20}{80} = \frac{800}{80} = 10 \\ [/tex]

We have the final answer as

10 L
