it would surely depend on the pressure of the container from which the air was transfered - and on the pressure in the new container.

Fill a container three times using the 7-liter jar (which will give you 21 liters), then take out water with the 11-liter jar (which will give you 10 liters).
You have to have something else to build the 4 liters into. Call it The Tub.Fill the 5.Pour the 5 into the 3.That leaves 2 liters in the 5.Pour them into The Tub.

If you fill the container up then Yes. Litres are a measure of volume, which remains the same regardless of what fluid or material you are describing.
-- Fill the 3 from the hose.-- Pour the 3 into the 5. The 5 container now has unfilled capacity of 2.-- Fill the 3 again from the hose.-- Pour the 3 slowly into the 5. It'll take only 2 to fill the 5 container.-- There is now 1 remaining in the 3 container. QED
