Answer:
6.75atm
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
V1 = 189L
P1 = 1atm
V2 = 28L
P2 =?
Using Boyle's law equation P1V1 = P2V2 the pressure required to compress the gas can be obtained as follows:
P1V1 = P2V2
1 x 189 = P2 x 28
Divide both side by 28
P2 = 189/28
P2 = 6.75atm
Therefore, the pressure require to compress the gas is 6.75atm
