A mass of gas under constant pressure occupies a volume of 0.5 m3 at a temperature of 20°C. Using the formula for cubic expansion, what will be the volume at a temperature of 45°C without a change in pressure?

Without a change in pressure

V/T = V/T
Before change = after change - expansion

x = volume at m3

(0.5)/20 = x/45

.025 = x/45

.025 * 45 = x

1 = x

The volume of this gas is 1 m3.

Hope this helps :) also the gas expanded .5 of m3.
