Suppose you have a closed rigid container of air at 20 Celsius on the surface of the Earth. We change the temperature of the container to 48 Celsius, leaving it closed, and read a pressure gauge attached to the container. Initially the reading was 101 KPa (kilopascals, or 1000 N/m2). What is the new reading? Give your answer in KPa.

A balloon is filled with helium gas at atmospheric pressure (1 atm) until its volume is 800 m³. The helium gas is then transferred to cylinders that have a volume of 2.3 m³ at a pres- sure of 13.3 atm. Calculate the number of cylinders used. Assume that the temperature of the helium gas remains constant. (1 atm = 1.013 × 105 Pa).
