    The initial temperature was 234K

    Explanation:

    We use the gas formula, which results from the combination of the Boyle, Charles and Gay-Lussac laws. According to which at a constant mass, temperature, pressure and volume vary, keeping constant PV / T

    (P1xV1) / T1 = (P2xV2) / T2

    (16atmx84L) / T1 = (17atmx 96 L) / 284K

    1344atmx L/T1 = 5,75 atm x L/K

    T1 = 1344atmx L/5,75 atm x L/K = 233,74K
