#90.0" g O"_2#

Explanation:

Assuming Pressure and Temperature are constant using the ideal gas law: #PV=nRT#

We can say that:
#V_1/n_1=V_2/n_2#

Where V represents the volume and #n# represents the number of mols

#50 "g O"_2*(1 "mol O"_2)/(32 "g O"_2)= 1.5625 "mol O"_2#

#n_2=( V_2*n_1)/V_1#

#n_2=(72L*1.5625 mol)/(40L)=2.8125" mol O"_2#

#2.8125" mol O"_2*(32 "g O"_2)/(1 "mol O"_2)=90.0" g O"_2#
