If we took 1.68 L of gas at 99.6 kPa and compressed to a pressure of 6,000,000 kPa, what would the volume of that gas be in microliters?

Microliter is on millionth of a liter

Well, #P_1V_1=P_2V_2#...of course there is a catch....

Explanation:

#99.6*kPaxx1.68*L=6xx10^6*kPaxxV_2#...

#V_2=(99.6*kPaxx1.68*L)/(6xx10^6*kPa)=2.78xx10^-5*L#

#-=27.8*muL#

...I suspect that under this pressure the gas would condense. The question is not well-proposed...
