A sample of gas initially occupies 4.25 L at a pressure of 0.850 atm at 23.0^oC.What will the volume be if the temperature is changed to 11.5^oC, and the pressure is changed to 1.50 atm?

Using the combined gas law, (P1 * V1) / T1 = (P2 * V2) / T2, where temperatures are in Kelvin, the final volume V2 can be calculated. Converting temperatures to Kelvin: T1 = 296.15 K and T2 = 284.65 K. Solving for V2 gives approximately 2.31 L.
