Answer

$6.6\times 10^8Pa$

Work Step by Step

We can find the required pressure as follows: $\Delta V=90.5\%=0.0905$ $V_{\circ}=1+0.0905=1.0905$ and the fractional change in volume is given as $\frac{\Delta V}{V_{\circ}}=\frac{-0.0905}{1.0905}=-0.083$ Now $\Delta P=-B(\frac{\Delta V}{V_{\circ}})$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $\Delta P=(-0.8\times 10^{10^{10}N/m^2})(-0.083)$ $\Delta P=6.64\times 10^8Pa$ The required pressure is $P_f=P_i+\Delta P$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $P_f=1.01\times 10^5Pa+6.64\times 10^8Pa$ $P=6.6\times 10^8Pa$
