Answer:
3.67 L
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Initial temperature (T1) = 300 K
Initial volume (V1) = 4 L
Final temperature (T2) = 275 K
Final volume (V2) =?
Thus, we can obtain the final volume (i.e the new volume) of the balloon by using the Charles law equation as shown below:
V1 /T1 = V2 /T2
4/300 = V2/275
Cross multiply
300 × V2 = 4 × 275
300 × V2 = 1100
Divide both side by 300
V2 = 1100 / 300
V2 = 3.67 L
Therefore, the new volume of the balloon is 3.67 L
