    Answer: 170

    Explanation:

    Initial volume of gas V1 = 200 (liters, ml, dm3 or cm3)

    Initial pressure of gas = 850 mmHg

    New volume of gas V2 = ?

    New pressure of gas P2 = 1000mmHg

    Since pressure and volume are involved while temperature is constant, apply the formula for Boyle's law

    P1V1 = P2V2

    850 mmHg x 200 = 1000 mmHg x V2

    170000 = 1000V2

    Divide both sides by 1000

    170000/1000 = 1000V2/1000

    170 = V2

    Thus, the new volume of the gas is 170 (liters, ml, dm3 or cm3)
