What yall think the answer is

Answer 1

302.8K

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Charles law equation;

V1/T1 = V2/T2

Where;

V1 = initial volume (L)

V2 = final volume (L)

T1 = initial temperature (K)

T2 = final temperature (K)

According to the information provided in this question;

V1 = 545L

V2 = 550L

T1 = 27°C = 27 + 273 = 300K

T2 = ?

Using V1/T1 = V2/T2

545/300 = 550/T2

1.82 = 550/T2

Cross multiply

1.82 T2 = 550

T2 = 550/1.82

T2 = 302.8K
