Answer:

3,29L

Step-by-step explanation:

3.29L = V2

Formula: V1/T1 = V2/T2

--------------------

Given:

V1 = 3.0 L V2 = ?

T1 = 310 K T2 = 340 K

--------------------

Plugin:

(X stands in place of V2 just to make it easier to look at)

[3.0L / 310K = X / 340K]

(3.0L / 310K = 0.01L/K)

0.01L/K = X / 340K

(multiply 340K on both sides, it cancels out on the right)

0.01L/K * 340K = X

(0.01L/K * 340K = 3.29L)

**3.29L = X**

[or]

**3.29L = V2**
