Answer

$606C^{\circ}$

Work Step by Step

We can find the temperature $T_2$ as follows: $\frac{p_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{p_2V_2}{T_2}$ $\implies \frac{p_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{3p_1\cdot 3V_1}{T_2}$ This can be rearranged as: $T_2=9T_1$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $T_2=9(293)$ $\implies T_2=879K=606C^{\circ}$
