Identify the known variables from the problem: number of moles \(n = 1.9\) mol, volume \(V = 9.45\) L, temperature \(T = 228\) K, and the ideal gas constant \(R = 0.0821\) L\(\cdot\) atm\(\cdot\) mol^{-1}\(\cdot\) K^{-1}$.
Recall the ideal gas law formula: \(P \times V = n \times R \times T\), where \(P\) is the pressure in atm.
Rearrange the ideal gas law to solve for pressure \(P\): \(P = \frac{n \times R \times T}{V}\).
Substitute the known values into the equation: \(P = \frac{1.9 \times 0.0821 \times 228}{9.45}\).
Perform the multiplication and division to calculate the pressure \(P\) in atm.
