Synthetic diamonds can be manufactured at pressures of #6.00 times 10^4# atm. If we took 2.00 liters of gas at 1.00 atm and compressed it to a pressure #6.00 times 10^4# atm, what would the volume of that gas be?

The volume is
Explanation:
Apply Boyle's Law
The temperature being constant
The initial volume is
The initial pressure
The final pressure is
The final volume is
Rather small, a fraction of a millilitre….
Explanation:
Old Boyle's Law insists that
And so …………….
And note our assumptions...we ASSUME (perhaps wrongly) that the gas would not undergo a phase change.
Explanation:
Assuming gas is ideal undergoing a constant temperature process then
According to Boyle's Law, at constant temperature
As per given data, initial pressure
The final volume of gas becomes
