Explanation:
We can use the ideal gas equation to solve this problem:
where
-
#P# is the pressure exerted by the gas, in#"atm"# -
#V# is the volume occupied by the gas, in#"L"# -
#n# is the number of moles of gas present -
#R# is the universal gas constant, equal to#0.082057("L"•"atm")/("mol"•"K")# -
#T# is the absolute temperature of the gas, in#"K"#
Since all our units are appropriate, let's plug things in and solve for
rounded to two significant figures.
