Abraham Riggs · Answer 1

Using Charle's law, which states that at constant pressure, volume and temperature are directly proportional. V1/T1=V2/T2

This can also be expressed as V1 (T2) = V2 (T1)

So we know V1, T1, and T2. Solving for V2 we get 6.2 Liters. So (2)

Lea Osborn · Answer 2

The volume increases with the increase in tempature. I didnt claculate it, but it's probably 6.2.

Use the equation P1xV1/T1=P2xV2/T2 to solve combined gas law equations.
