    (These are not rounded to the correct decimal)

    130.94 atm

    13,266.6 kPa

    99,571.4 mmHg

    Explanation:

    PV = nRT

    V = 245L

    P = ?

    R = 0.08206 (atm), 8.314 (kPa), 62.4 (mmHg)

    T = 273.15 + 27 = 300.15K

    n = 1302.5 moles

    How I found (n).

    5.21kg x 1000g/1kg x 1 mole/4.0g = 1302.5 moles

    Now, plug all the numbers into the equation.

    Pressure in atm = (1302.5) (0.08206) (300.15) / 245 = 130.94 atm (not rounded to the correct decimal)

    Pressure in kPa = (1302.5) (8.314) (300.15) / 245 = 13,266.6 kPa (not rounded to the correct decimal)

    Pressure in mmHg = (1302.5) (62.4) (300.15) / 245 = 99,571.4 mmHg (not rounded to the correct decimal)
