Answer: 22368.4 Liters

Explanation:

Initial Volume of gas V1 = 20000 liters

Initial pressure of gas P1 = 850 torr

Final volume V2 = ?

Final (standard) pressure P2 = 760 torr

Apply the formula for Boyle's law:

P1V1 = P2V2

850torr x 20000L = 760torr x V2

V2 = (850torr x 20000L)/ 760torr

V2 = (17000000)/760torr

V2 = 22368.4L

Thus, the volume of the gas at standard pressure is 22368.4 Liters
