Answer:

23.12 atm

Step-by-step explanation:

First, add together the moles of the two samples:

5.25 moles + 4.20 moles = 9.45 moles

273 + 25 = 298 K for the temperature

volume is 10.0 L

Since we have moles now, we have to rearrange our ideal law equation to solve for pressure:


P = (nRT)/(V)


((9.45 moles) X (0.08206) X (298 K))/(10.0 L)

9.45 X .08206 X 298 all divided by 10.0 = 23.09202 atm (or 23.12)
