PV = nRT
P = pressure in atmospheres (convert from torr)
V = volume in liters
n = number of moles
R = gas law constant 0.08206 L-atm/mol-K
T = temperature (in degrees Kelvin)

Just plug and chug!

PV=nRT R is constant

T= 836*150/(15*62.4) =125400/936= 134 deg. Kelvin

What they said. BUt remember to convert torr to atmosphere.

760 torrs = 1 atm

T = PV/nR = 1.1 atm * 150 L / (15 mol * 0.08206 L atm mol^-1 K^-1) = 134.04 K = -139 C
