Solution

This problem can be solved using Boyle's Law, which states that the pressure and volume of a gas have an inverse relationship when temperature is held constant. In mathematical terms, P1V1 = P2V2, where P1 and V1 are the initial pressure and volume, and P2 and V2 are the final pressure and volume.

Step 1: Identify the knowns. P1 = 1.00 atm (initial pressure) V1 = 400.0 mL (initial volume) V2 = 2.0 L (final volume)

Step 2: Convert all volumes to the same units. 1 L = 1000 mL, so V2 = 2.0 L = 2000 mL

Step 3: Substitute the known values into Boyle's Law and solve for P2 (final pressure). P1V1 = P2V2 1.00 atm * 400.0 mL = P2 * 2000 mL P2 = (1.00 atm * 400.0 mL) / 2000 mL P2 = 0.20 atm

So, the pressure at which the volume of the gas is 2.0 L is 0.20 atm.
