A gas storage cylinder in an ordinary chemical laboratory measures 6.1cm wide snd 24.cm high.
Find the final volume if the cylinder is opened.

Transcribed Image Text:**Solving Applications of Boyle's Law**
A gas storage cylinder in an ordinary chemical laboratory measures 6.1 cm wide and 24 cm high. This is the label on it:
- **Contents:** N₂ gas
- **Pressure:** 23.0 atm
If the cylinder is opened and the gas allowed to escape into a large empty plastic bag, what will be the final volume of nitrogen gas, including what's collected in the plastic bag and what's left over in the cylinder? Write your answer in liters. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.
Input box for volume measurement (L).
Options for calculation adjustments or additional help:
- "x" for resetting entries
- "?" for help or hints
Buttons:
- **Explanation** provides further details on how to solve the problem.
- **Check** to verify the answer.
