The temperature of the gas if the volume is increased to 5.0L is 616.07K.

The temperature of a gas, given the volume, can be calculated using the following formula:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

Where;

  • V₁ and T₁ = initial volume and temperature
  • V₂ and T₂ = final volume and temperature

According to this question, a gas is at 35.0°C and 2.50L. The final temperature is as follows:

2.5/308 = 5/T

0.008116T = 5

T = 616.07K
