Problema Solution
At STP, what is the volume of 6.20 moles of nitrogen gas?

Tabulate the data
Initial Conditions Final Conditions
volume V1 = 6.20 L V2 = ?
pressure P1 = 0.980 atm P2 = 1.11 atm
2. Check the pressure unit. If they are different, use a conversion factor to make them the same. (Pressure conversion factors are found in the previous section.)
3. Substitute in the Boyle's Law Equation:
4. Check that your answer is reasonable. The pressure has increased the volume should decrease. The calculated final olume is less than the initial volume, as predicted.
