  2. B 20 mL
  3. C 25 mL
  4. D 35 mL
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 20 mL

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

According to Boyle's law,
\(P_1 V_1=P_2 V_2\)
(at constant n and T)
\(\therefore \quad \mathrm{V}_2=\frac{\mathrm{P}_1 \mathrm{~V}_1}{\mathrm{P}_2}=\frac{1 \mathrm{~atm} \times 25 \mathrm{~mL}}{1.25 \mathrm{~atm}}=20 \mathrm{~mL}\)
