Well, old Charles' Law holds that #VpropT# at constant pressure......for a given quantity of gas.....

So if #VpropT#, then #V=kT#; if we solve for #k# under different conditions of volume and temperature.....

#V_1/T_1=V_2/T_2#, temperature is measured in #"degrees Kelvin"#.

And #V_2=V_1/T_1xxT_2=(275*mL)/(298*K)xx403*K=??mL#
