Answer:


T_2=894.45K=621.30\°C

Step-by-step explanation:

Hell there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to calculate the new temperature by applying the Charles' law as a directly proportional relationship between temperature and volume:


(V_2)/(T_2) =(V_1)/(T_1)

Thus, we solve for the final temperature, T2, as shown below (make sure T1 is in Kelvins):


T_2=(V_2T_1)/(V_1) \\\\T_2=((25+273.15)K*45L)/(15L)\\\\T_2=894.45K=621.30\°C
