    For ideal gases at constant volume, you can use the law of Gay - Lussac:

    P / T = constant = > P1 / T1 = P2 / T2

    => P2 = T2 * P1 / T1

    And remember you have to use absolute scale of temperature.

    T1 = 25 + 273.15 = 298.15 K

    T2 = 475 + 273.15 = 748.15 K

    => P2 = 748.15 K * 1.8 atm / 298.15 K = 4.5 atm

    Answer: 4.5 atm
