Answer:
5 Pa

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we first need to convert the volume of the gas in milliliters to liters. There are 1000 milliliters in a liter, so we can multiply the volume of the gas in milliliters by 1/1000 to get its volume in liters. This gives us a volume of 0.34 liters.

The pressure of a gas is equal to the force it exerts per unit area. The unit of pressure is the pascal (Pa). In this case, the force of the gas is 180N and the area over which it is exerting this force is 36m², so the pressure of the gas is 180N/36m² = 5 Pa.

If we change the volume of the gas to 540 liters, the pressure will not change. This is because the pressure of a gas is dependent on the force it exerts and the area over which it is exerted, and not on the volume of the gas itself. The pressure of the gas will remain 5 Pa regardless of its volume.
