Answer:

5.00 mL

Explanation:

The original volume can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

[tex]P_1V_1 = P_2V_2[/tex]

Since we are finding the original volume

[tex]V_1 = \frac{P_2V_2}{P_1} \\[/tex]

From the question we have

[tex]V_1 = \frac{3700 \times 0.96}{710} = \frac{3552}{710} \\ = 5.002816...[/tex]

We have the final answer as

5.00 mL

Hope this helps you
