Data Given:
Pressure = P = ?

Volume = V = 3.0 L

Temperature = T = 115 °C + 273 = 388 K

Mass = m = 75.0 g

M.mass = M = 44 g/mol

Solution:
Let suppose the Gas is acting Ideally. Then According to Ideal Gas Equation,
P V = n R T
Solving for P,
P = n R T / V ------ (1)
Calculating Moles,
n = m / M

n = 75.0 g / 44 g.mol⁻¹

n = 1.704 mol

Putting Values in Eq. 1,

P = (1.704 mol × 0.08205 atm.L.mol⁻¹.K⁻¹ × 388 K) ÷ 3.0 L

P = 18.08 atm
