To determine the new pressure of the gas in the cylinder after the volume is reduced, we can use Boyle's Law. Boyle's Law states that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume, assuming the temperature and the amount of gas remain constant.
Mathematically, Boyle's Law can be expressed as P1V1 = P2V2, where P1 and V1 are the initial pressure and volume, respectively, and P2 and V2 are the final pressure and volume, respectively.
Given:
P1 = 70 kilopascals
V1 = 8.0 liters
V2 = 4.0 liters
Using the equation P1V1 = P2V2, we can plug in the given values and solve for P2:
70 kilopascals * 8.0 liters = P2 * 4.0 liters
560 kilopascals * liters = P2 * 4.0 liters
Dividing both sides of the equation by 4.0 liters, we get:
P2 = 560 kilopascals / 4.0 liters
P2 = 140 kilopascals
Therefore, the new pressure of the gas in the cylinder after the volume is reduced to 4.0 liters should be 140 kilopascals. The correct answer is 140 kilopascals.

Apologies for the confusion. I made an error in my calculation. Let's re-evaluate the problem:
Given:
P1 = 70 kilopascals
V1 = 8.0 liters
V2 = 4.0 liters
Using Boyle's Law: P1V1 = P2V2
70 kilopascals * 8.0 liters = P2 * 4.0 liters
560 kilopascals * liters = P2 * 4.0 liters
Dividing both sides of the equation by 4.0 liters, we get:
P2 = 560 kilopascals / 4.0 liters
P2 = 140 kilopascals
Therefore, the correct answer is 140 kilopascals.
