Answer:

294mL

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use this equation to find the unknown volume:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

To solve, plug in the values we have and solve for the unknown value:

$(1.10atm)(507mL)=(1.90atm)V_2\\((1.10atm)(507mL))/(1.90atm) =V_2\\V_2=293.53mL$

Rounding to three significant figures gives you the value of 294mL
