V_2 = 33.0V2=33.0 "L"L

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use the temperature-volume relationship of gases, illustrated by Charles's law:

(V_1)/(T_1) = (V_2)/(T_2)V1T1=V2T2

Remember that for all gas equation problems, the temperature must always be in units of Kelvin.

Let's convert both temperatures:

T_1 = 19^"o""C" + 273 = 292T1=19oC+273=292 "K"K

T_2 = 122^"o""C" + 273 = 395T2=122oC+273=395 "K"K

And the initial volume V_1V1 is given as 24.424.4 "L"L.

Plugging in known values, and solving for V_2V2, we have

V_2 = (T_2V_1)/(T_1) = ((395cancel("K"))(24.4color(white)(l)"L"))/(292cancel("K")) = color(blue)(33.0 color(blue)("L"
