Answer:305.8 cm3

Step-by-step explanation:

V = Volume; T = Temperature

V1 = 605cm3

T1=455k

T2=230k

V2=?

Charles's law formula: V1/T1=V2/T2

605cm3/455k = V2/230k

Multiply 230k on both sides on the numerator

V1 * T2/T1 = V2

605cm3 *230/455 = V2

139150cm3/455 = V2

305.8 = V2

Hope this helps!
