    4.34atm

    Explanation:

    The following data were obtained from the question:

    P1 = 3.50 atm

    T1 = 24°C = 24 + 273 = 297K

    T2 = 95°C = 368K

    P2 = ?

    Using P1 / T1 = P2 / T2, we can obtain the new pressure as follows:

    P1 / T1 = P2 / T2

    3.5 / 297 = P2 / 368

    Cross multiply to express in linear form:

    297 x P2 = 3.5 x 368

    Divide both side by the 297

    P2 = (3.5 x 368) / 297

    P2 = 4.34atm

    Therefore, the gas pressure in the container at 95°C will be 4.34atm
