Please help!

A quantity of gas has a volume of 0.20 cubic meter and an absolute temperature of 333 degrees kelvin. When the temperature of the gas is raised to 533 degrees kelvin, what is the new volume of the gas? (Assume that there's no change in pressure.)

A. 0.0006 m^3
B. 0.2333 m^3
C. 0.2146 m^3
D. 0.3198 m^3

Use the Charles' Law. Are you familiar with that?

quennlee · Answer

V1/T1 = V2/T2

I tried that but I got a completely different answer then anything listed

andromeda992 · Answer

$$\frac{ 0.20}{ 333K }=\frac{ V2 }{ 533 }$$

But the problem said that it has an absolute temperature and not only that.. the problem also said that there's no change in pressure..
