Identify the known variables from the problem: number of moles \(n = 0.200\) mol, pressure \(P = 200.\) kPa, temperature \(T = 400.\) K, and the ideal gas constant \(R = 8.314\) L\(\cdot\) kPa \(\cdot\) mol^{-1} \(\cdot\) K^{-1}$.
Recall the ideal gas law formula: \(P \times V = n \times R \times T\), where \(V\) is the volume we want to find.
Rearrange the ideal gas law to solve for volume \(V\): \(V = \frac{n \times R \times T}{P}\).
Substitute the known values into the equation: \(V = \frac{0.200 \times 8.314 \times 400}{200}\).
Perform the arithmetic operations step-by-step to find the volume \(V\) in liters.
