The final volume
Refer to the explanation for the process.
Explanation:
This question involves Boyle's law, which states that the volume of a gas held at constant temperature varies inversely with the pressure. The means that if the volume increases, the pressure decreases, and vice versa. The equation for Boyle's law is:
Organize the data.
Solution
Rearrange the equation to isolate
