Given,

#n = 5.00"g" * "mol"/(71"g") approx 7.04*10^-2"mol"#

#V = 0.750"L"#

#P = 900"mmHg" * "atm"/(760"mmHg") approx 1.18"atm"#

Recall,

#PV = nRT#

Hence,

#=>T = (PV)/(nR) approx 154°"C"#

is the temperature at which this gas will behave in accordance with those parameters, given ideal behavior.
