At what temperature will a given volume of a gas at 0 degree Celsius become double its volume at constant pressure?

Given : 
 Temperature , T1 = 0o C or 273 K

​Solution :
Condition 1 : T​1 = 273 K ; volume = V1 ; pressure = P
ideal gas equeation for this equation  
PV1 = nRT1
PV1 = nR×273         .............. 1)
Condition 2 : T2 = ?  ; volume = 2V1  ; pressure = P (constant) 
Ideal gas equation for this equation 
P×2V1 = nRT2        ................2)  
Divide the equation 1 with 2
P×V1P×2V1 = nR×273nR×T2
 12 = 273T2 
T2 = 273 ×2 =   546 K
At 546 K the volume will be doubled .

Consider the Initial volume (V1)= x, T1= 273 KV 2 = 2x, T2=?

By Charles' Law,

V1T2=V2T1

x  . T2 = 2x . 273

T2 = 546 K

T2 = 546 – 273 = 273° C
