Assume that you have a sample of gas in a cylinder with a movable piston, as shown in the following drawing:

Redraw the apparatus to show what the sample will look like after (b) the pressure is increased from 1 atm to 2 atm at constant temperature

Hi everyone here we have a question asking us to consider the image below representing gas in a container that has no fixed volume, draws similar image representing the same gas at the same temperature, except that the pressure is decreased by two atmospheres. So we're going to use Boyle's Law, P one V one equals P two V two. This means that pressure and volume are inversely proportional with each other. A higher pressure leads to smaller volume and vice versa. So our image would look like this. We're still going to have 13 particles, but they're gonna be spread further apart. So we got one 23, seven eight 10, 11, 12. And that is our answer. Thank you for watching. Bye.
