Answer:

The answer is 25 atm

Step-by-step explanation:

The new pressure can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is


P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

Since we are finding the new pressure


P_2 = (P_1V_1)/(V_2) \\

From the question we have


P_2 = (2 * 99.9)/(8) = (199.8)/(8) \\ = 24.975

We have the final answer as

25 atm

Hope this helps you
