The formula to calculate the Final Gas Pressure (P2) is:
\[ P2 = \frac{P1 \times V1}{V2} \]
Where:
Final gas pressure refers to the pressure of a gas after it has undergone a change in volume. This concept is often used in thermodynamics and fluid mechanics to understand how gases behave under different conditions. According to Boyle’s Law, for a given amount of gas at constant temperature, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to its volume. This means that if the volume of the gas decreases, its pressure increases, and vice versa. Final gas pressure can be calculated using the initial pressure, initial volume, and final volume of the gas.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula to calculate the Final Gas Pressure (P2):
\[ P2 = \frac{P1 \times V1}{V2} = \frac{2 \times 4}{2} = 4 \text{ atm} \]
The Final Gas Pressure (P2) is 4 atm.
