Answer:

1 atm

Step-by-step explanation:

The final pressure can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is


P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

Since we are finding the new pressure


P_2 = (P_1V_1)/(V_2) \\

From the question we have


P_2 = (10 * 2)/(20) = (20)/(20) \\

We have the final answer as

1 atm

Hope this helps you
