A mixture of CO (g) and H2 (g) is pumped into a previously evacuated 2.0 L reaction vessel. The total pressure of the reaction system is 1.2 atm at equilibrium. What will be the total pressure of the system if the volume of the reaction vessel is reduced to 1.0 L at constant temperature? (A) Less than 1.2 atm b. Greater than 1.2 atm but less than 2.4 atm (C) 2.4 atm (D) Greater than 2.4 atm

    The answer to your question is letter C, 2.4 atm

    Explanation:

    Data

    Volume 1 = V1 = 2 L

    Pressure 1 = P1 = 1.2 atm

    Pressure 2 = P2 = ?

    Volume 2 = V2 = 1 L

    Formula

    P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

    Solve for P₂

    P₂ = P₁V₁ / V₂

    Substitution

    P₂ = (2) (1.2) / 1

    Simplification

    P₂ = 2.4 / 1

    Result

    P₂ = 2.4 atm
