I'm having some trouble getting started on this one:

3.00×10^4 cm^3 of 300 degrees C steam at a pressure of 10.0 atm is cooled until it condenses. What is the volume of the liquid water? Give your answer in cm^3.

I figure you use pV=nRT to solve. I've been trying to rearrange it, but am confused. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Firstly, why is this is Quantum Physics?

Secondly, why don't you show us the equation that you get when you rearrange it?
