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 $1$ atmosphere, temperature $27°C$). Assuming that the temperature around Mount Everest is $-73°C$ and that the oxygen cylinder has capacity of $5.2 \,litre,$ the pressure at which ${O_2}$ be filled (at site) in cylinder is  .... $atm$
