    Volume will goes to increase.

    Explanation:

    The given problem will be solve through the Charles Law.

    According to this law, The volume of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant number of moles and pressure.

    Mathematical expression:

    V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

    V₁ = Initial volume

    T₁ = Initial temperature

    V₂ = Final volume

    T₂ = Final temperature

    So when the temperature goes to increase the volume of gas also increase. Higher temperature increase the kinetic energy and molecules move randomly every where in given space so volume increase.

    Now we will put the suppose values in formula.

    V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

    V₂ = V₁T₂/T₁

    V₂ = 4.5 L * 348 K / 298 k

    V₂ = 1566 L. K / 298 K

    V₂ = 5.3 L

    Hence prove that volume increase by increasing the temperature.
