Answer: The oxygen gas has a pressure of 4 atm if my volume decreases to 1 L.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:
V_(1) = 2 L,
P_(1) = 2 atm

V_(2) = 1 L,
P_(2) = ?

Formula used to calculate the new pressure is as follows.

P_(1)V_(1) = P_(2)V_(2)

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

$P_(1)V_(1) = P_(2)V_(2)\\2 atm * 2 L = P_(2) * 1 L\\P_(2) = 4 atm$

Thus, we can conclude that the oxygen gas has a pressure of 4 atm if my volume decreases to 1 L.
