    0.494 atm

    Explanation:

    Data obtained from the question include:

    P1 (initial pressure) = 0.987 atm

    V1 (initial volume) = 12.8 L

    P2 (final pressure) = ?

    V2 (final volume) = 25.6 L

    Using the Boyle's law equation P1V1 = P2V2, the final pressure can be obtained as follow:

    P1V1 = P2V2

    0.987 x 12.8 = P2 x 25.6

    Divide both side by 25.6

    P2 = (0.987 x 12.8) / 25.6

    P2 = 0.494 atm

    Therefore, the final pressure of the gas is 0.494 atm
