Answer:

20.(45)L or about 20.4545L

Explanation:

PV = nRT

Where:

P - pressure

V - volume

n - number of particle moles

R - a constant

T - temperature in K

We can assume the P and n (and definitely R) stay the same, so we infer that

[tex]V_1 = \frac{nRT_1}{P} = 15L\\V_2 = \frac{nRT_2}{P}\\V_1 / V_2 = \frac{nRT_1}{P} / \frac{nRT_2}{P} = \frac{T_1}{T_2}\\\\15L / V_2 = \frac{330K}{450K} = \frac{11}{15}\\\\V_2 = 15L \cdot \frac{15}{11} = 20.(45)L[/tex]
