A gas has a volume of 2.60 liters at a temperature of 87$\degree$C and pressure of 1.30 atm. What is the volume of the gas, in liters, at a temperature of 367$\degree$C and a pressure of 4.70 atm?

To solve this problem, we can use the combined gas law equation:

(P1 V1) / (T1) = (P2 V2) / (T2)

where P1, V1, and T1 are the pressure, volume, and temperature at the initial state, and P2, V2, and T2 are the pressure, volume, and temperature at the final state.

Plugging in the given values, we get:

(1.30 atm * 2.60 L) / (87°F + 273.15) = (4.70 atm * V2) / (367°F + 273.15)

Solving for V2, we get:

V2 = (1.30 atm * 2.60 L * (367°F + 273.15)) / (4.70 atm * (87°F + 273.15)) = 1.28 L

Therefore, the volume of the gas at the final state is 1.28 L, which corresponds to choice B.
