A marine biologist is preparing a deep-sea submersible for a dive. The sub stores breathing air under high pressure in a spherical air tank that measures 60.0 cm wide. The biologist estimates she will need 8100. L of air for the dive. Calculate the pressure to which this volume of air must be compressed in order to fit into the air tank. Write your answer in atmospheres. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. ? Check
