The absolute pressure inside the ball is 1.25atm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given-

Volume, V = 5..27L

Temperature, T = 27°C

Gauge Pressure, Pg = 0.25 atm

Atmospheric pressure, Patm = 1 atm

Absolute pressure, Pabs = ?

We know,


Pabs = Pg + Patm\\\\\\Pabs = 0.25 + 1 atm\\\\Pabs = 1.25atm

Therefore, absolute pressure inside the ball is 1.25atm.
