The air density at Mount Everest is less than that at the sea level. It is found by mountaineers that for one trip lasting a few hours,the extra oxygen needed by them corresponds to $30,000 \, cc$ at sea level (pressure $1 \, atm$,temperature $27^{\circ}C$). Assuming that the temperature around Mount Everest is $-73^{\circ}C$ and that the oxygen cylinder has a capacity of $5.2 \, L$,the pressure at which $O_2$ must be filled (at site) in the cylinder is .... $atm$.

  • A

  • B
    $5.00$
  • C
    $5.77$
  • D
