    45kPa

    Explanation:

    P1 = 75kPa = 75,000Pa

    V1 = 33L

    V2 = 55L

    P2 = ?

    To solve this question, we'll have to apply Boyle's law which states that the volume of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure provided its temperature remains constant

    Mathematically,

    V = k / P, k = PV

    P1*V1 = P2*V2 = P3*V3 = ... = Pn*Vn

    P1 * V1 = P2 * V2

    P2 = (P1 * V1) / V2

    P2 = (75000 * 33) / 55

    P2 = 45000Pa

    P2 = 45kPa

    The final pressure of the gas is 45kPa
