The volume of the gas expansion is 0.71 liters.

Boyle's law

Boyle's law states that the volume of a given mass of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure provided that temperature remains constant.

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

where;

  • P₁ = 30 psi
  • V₁ = 0.35 liters
  • P₂ = 1 atm = 14.7 psi

The volume of the gas expansion is calculated as follows;

[tex]V_2 = \frac{P_1 V_1}{P_2} \\\\V_2 = \frac{30 \times 0.35}{14.7} \\\\V_2 = 0.71 \ Liters[/tex]
