This is a problem dealing with a modification of the combined gas law:
P1V1/n1T1 = P2V2/n2T2
P1 = initial pressure = 1 atm
V1 = initial volume = 4.4 L
n1 = initial moles = 4.0
T1 = initial temperature = 273K
P2 = final pressure = 3.4 atm
V2 = final volume = 6.7 L
n2 = final moles = 7.3
T2 = final temperature = ?
Plugging the values in and solving for T2, we have...
(1 atm)(4.4 L)/(4.0 mol)(273K) = (3.4 atm)(6.7 L)/(7.3 mol)(T2)
T2 = 774K
