Under normal conditions, the gas occupies a volume of 1 cubic meter, which volume will be occupied

Under normal conditions, the gas occupies a volume of 1 cubic meter, which volume will be occupied by this gas during isothermal compression to a pressure of 4.9 MPa, the normal atmospheric pressure is 0.1 MPa.

Data: V1 (gas volume at standard level) = 1 m3; P2 (pressure of taken gas after isothermal compression) = 4.9 MPa.

Constants: according to the condition P1 (gas pressure at normal conditions) = 0.1 MPa.

Since the gas was compressed at a constant temperature, the volume occupied by it is determined using the proportion: P1 * V1 = P2 * V2 and V2 = P1 * V1 / P2.

Calculation: V2 = 0.1 * 1 / 4.9 ≈ 0.02 m3.

Answer: After isothermal compression, the taken gas will occupy a volume of 0.02 m3.
