Considering ideal gas:
PV= RTn

T= 25.2°C = 298.2 K

P1= 637 torr = 0.8382 atm

V1= 536 mL = 0.536 L

:. R=0.082 atm.L/K.mol

:. n= (P1V1)/(RT) = ((0.8382 atm) x (0.536 L))/
((0.082 atmL/Kmol) x (298.2K))

:. n= O.0184 mol

Then,
P2= 712 torr = 0.936842 atm

V2 = RTn/P2 = [(0.082atmL/
Kmol) x (298.2K) x (0.0184mol) ]/(0.936842atm)

:.V2 = 0.4796 L
OR
V2 = 479.6 ml
