Answer:


P = 153.96 atm

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that


PV = n RT\\

where P is the pressure of the gas

V is the volume of the gas

n is the number of moles of the gas

R is the gas constant,
8.314 J / mol

T is the temperature of the gas

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -


P * 2.7 = 2 * 8.314 * 25


P = (415.7)/(2.7) \\


P = 153.96 atm
