A gas has a volume of 5.00L at 0 Celsius. What final temperature in degrees Celsius is needed to cause the volume of the gas to change to the following, if n (number of moles of gas) and P are not changed?
Part A 12.0 L....when i figured it out i got .219 as my answer

Make sure that you are using degrees KELVIN when doing calculations involving gas laws. You don't have to use the whole equation, just a portion, because you already know that two components, n and P, are pegged to be equal.
Using this equation:
V1/T1=V2/T2
5/273.15=12/T2
T2=655.56K=382.41degreesC

Clearing out the mess from pV= nRT,
V1/273 = V2/ X. X is the final temp, V1=5 and V2=12.

382.41 deg C
V2 x T1 = V1 x T2
12 x 273.15 / 5 = 382.41
