Imagine that you have a 6.50 L gas tank and a 2.50 L gas tank. You need to fill one tank with oxygen and the other with acetylene to use in conjunction with your welding torch. If you fill the larger tank with oxygen to a pressure of 156 bar , to what pressure should you fill the acetylene tank to ensure that you run out of each gas at the same time? Assume ideal behaviour for all gases. Express your answer with the appropriate units.
