3) Toluene was often used as a paint remover in the past. A 4 L metal container of toluene at 30°C was
open to the atmosphere (P=760 torr) and contained 2.4 L of liquid. The container was sealed just before
someone came along in a terrible mood and kicked a dent in the container. This caused the volume of
the container to decrease to 3 L. If the vapor pressure of toluene at 30°C is 37 Torr, what is the pressure
inside the now dented, sealed can?
