Answer: The new pressure is 1.34 atm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:
P_(1) = 10.8 atm,
T_(1) = 118^(o)C


P_(2) = ?,
T_(2) = 948^(o)C

Formula used to calculate the new pressure is as follows.


(P_(1))/(T_(1)) = (P_(2))/(T_(2))\\(10.8 atm)/(118^(o)C) = (P_(2))/(948^(o)C)\\P_(2) = 1.34 atm

Thu, we can conclude that the new pressure is 1.34 atm.
