Question

A balloon has a volume of 1.75L at a temperature of 25 °C . what will be the volume of the balloon if you take it out into the winter cold air at -15°C?

Answer 1

Boyle’s Law P1V1 = P2V2 P1 = 0.80 atm V1 = 1.8 L P2 = 1.0 atm V2 = ?? (.8 atm)(1.8 L) = (1.0 atm)(V2) 1.44 atm x L = 1 atm V2
