The new volume of the methane gas would be 113 atm
What is Boyle's law?
At constant temperature, the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume.
Mathematically; P1V1 = P2V2 where P1 = initial pressure, P2 = final pressure, V1 = initial temperature, and V2 - final temperature.
In this case, V1 = 226 [tex]cm^3[/tex], P2 = 2P1
Thus: V2 = P1V1/2P1 = V1/2 = 226/2 = 113 atm
