The sample will look expanded and occupy more space.

Explanation:

Since, the pressure is constant here, but the temperature is changed. Therefore, according to Charles' Law Volume is directly proportional to Temperature, provided the pressure is kept constant. Mathematically:

V1/T1 = V2/T2

V1 = (T1/T2) (V2)

V1 = (300 k/450 k) (V2)

V1 = (0.67) V2

The equation indicates that The fina volume of the gas V2 will be greater than the initial volume V1. Thus, sample will look expanded and occupy more space than the previous state.
