For this question, we will be using Boyle's gas Law, which is a law that shows the relationship between volume and pressure of a gas with constant temperature, the formula is:

P1V1 = P2V2

We have:

P1 = 16.7 kPa

V1 = 46.5 L

P2 = 9.1 kPa

V2 = ?

Now we add these values into the formula:

16.7 * 46.5 = 9.1 * V2

776.55 = 9.1V2

V2 = 85.3 L is the new volume
