#"27.6 L"#

Explanation:

Charles's law: Volume of an ideal gas at constant pressure is directly proportional to the absolute temperature.

#"V ∝ T"#

#color(white)(.)"V"_1/"T"_1 = "V"_2/"T"_2#

#"V"_2 = "T"_2 × "V"_1/"T"_1#

#"V"_2 = (-166 + 273)cancel"K" × "82.3 L"/((46 + 273) cancel"K")#

#"V"_2 = "27.6 L"#
