Question

Atmospheric pressure on the peak of Mount Everest can be as low as 0.20 atm. If the volume of an oxygen tank is 10.0 L, at what pressure must the tank be filled so that the gas inside would occupy a volume of 1.2x10^3L at this pressure?

Tried using the P1V1 = P2V2 formula and subbed all the values in, but it did not work. I don`t know what I did wrong.

Answer 1

That should work. Post your work and we can look for the error. Probably you just punched in a wrong number or hit the wrong key on your calculator.
