    Answer: 1800 L

    Explanation:

    Given that,

    Original pressure of gas (P1) = 180 kPa

    Original volume of gas (V1) = 1500 L

    New pressure of gas (P2) = 150 kPa

    New volume of gas (V2) = ?

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

    P1V1 = P1V2

    180 kPa x 1500 L = 150 kPa x V2

    270000 kPa•L = 150 kPa•V2

    Divide both sides by 150 kPa

    270000 kPa•L/150 kPa = 150 kPa•V2/150 kPa

    1800L = V2

    Thus, the new volume of the gas is 1800 liters.
