20L

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Initial volume (V1) = 10L

Initial Temperature (T1) = stp = 273K

Final temperature (T2) = 546K

Final volume (V2) = ... ?

The new volume of the gas can be obtained by using the Charles' law equation as shown below:

V1/T1 = V2/T2

10/273 = V2/546

Cross multiply to express in linear form

273 x V2 = 10 x 546

Divide both side by 273

V2 = (10 x 546) / 273

V2 = 20L

Therefore, the new volume of the gas is 20L.
