Q: A 2.00 L flask contains 1.15 atm of Ar. If the gas is transferred to a 4.50 L container at constant temperature, what is the new pressure of Ar?

$$P_2$$ = \frac{$$V_1$$}{$$V_2$$} \times $$P_1$$ = \frac{2.00}{4.50} \times 1.15 = 0.511$$ atm

Q: A mixture contains 0.249 mol CH$$_4$$, 0.143 mol C$$_2H$_4$$, and 0.0688 mol C$$_4H$_{10} in a 1.5 L $$flask at 273.15 K. If the total pressure is 6.98 bar, what is the partial pressure of C$$_2H$_4$$?

$$P_{C_2H_4} = X_{C_2H_4} \times P_t = \frac{0.143}{0.461} \times 6.98 = 2.17$$ bar
