Answer:

using charles law , volume of gas is 525.7 L

Step-by-step explanation:

Charles law states for a fixed mass of gas the volume is directly proportional to absolute temperature at constant pressure.

V1 / T1 = V2 / T2

V1 is volume and T1 is temperature at first instance

V2 is volume and T2 is temperature at second instance

substituting the values in the equation

480 L / 315 K = V2 / 345 K

V2 = 525.7 L

therefore new volume is 525.7 L
