5 atm pressure must be applied to compress the gas to a volume of only 150.0 ml.
<h3>Given</h3>Mass of oxygen at room temperature =500.0 ml
Volume of pressure = 50 atm pressure.
The gas to a volume = 150.0 ml
<h3>Explanation</h3>The volume decreases by the factor = 500.0 mL / 150.0 mL
= 10 / 3
The pressure of the gas increased by a factor of 10/3 , which would make its final value equal to
= 5.00 atm
So, 5 atm pressure must be applied to compress the gas to a volume of only 150.0 ml.
