If a 15.83 g sample of a gas occupies 10.0 L at STP, what is the molar mass of the gas at 125 degrees Celsius?

If a 15.83 g sample of a gas occupies 10.0 L at STP, what is the molar mass of the gas at 125 degrees celsius? Please show work so I can learn how to complete problem. Thanks

Update:

Have issues with the STP of the problem.

    At STP 1 mol gas has volume = 22.4L

    If 15.83g gas has volume at STP = 10L

    Then mass of gas in 22.4L = 22.4/10*15.83 = 35.5 g

    Therefore 1 mol gas has mass = 35.5g ,

    Molar mass of gas = 35.5g/mol

    The molar mass of the gas does not change with change in temperature.

    ------------------------------------------------------------

    15.83 g/10 L = x/22.4 L

    (15.83 g x 22.4 liters/mole)/10 liters = x

    = 35.6 grams/mole.

    x = molar mass, which does not change with

    temperature.
