4. The volume of the lungs is measured by the volume of air inhaled or
exhaled. If the volume of the lungs is 2.400 L during exhalation and
the pressure is 101.70 kPa, and the pressure during inhalation is
101.01 kPa, what is the volume of the lungs during inhalation?
What law is being addressed in this problem?
