To solve this problem, we can use Charles's law, which states that the volume of an ideal gas is directly proportional to its temperature when pressure is held constant.

Charles's law can be expressed as:

V1T1=V2T2frac{{V_1}}{{T_1}} = frac{{V_2}}{{T_2}}

where:

  • V1V_1 is the initial volume of the gas,
  • T1T_1 is the initial temperature of the gas,
  • V2V_2 is the final volume of the gas (which we need to find),
  • T2T_2 is the final temperature of the gas.

Given:

  • V1=1.2 litresV_1 = 1.2 , ext{litres}
  • T1=20 °C=20+273.15 KT_1 = 20 , degree ext{C} = 20 + 273.15 , ext{K}
