The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of the balloon's volume change due to temperature change, we will use Charles's Law, which states that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature (in Kelvin) when pressure is held constant. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Convert Temperatures to Kelvin**: - The initial temperature \( T_1 \) is given as \( 24^\circ C \). \[ T_1 = 24 + 273 = 297 \, K \] - The final temperature \( T_2 \) is given as \( -30^\circ C \). \[ T_2 = -30 + 273 = 243 \, K \] 2. **Identify Given Values**: - The initial volume \( V_1 \) is \( 2.5 \, L \). - The initial temperature \( T_1 \) is \( 297 \, K \). - The final temperature \( T_2 \) is \( 243 \, K \). - We need to find the final volume \( V_2 \). 3. **Apply Charles's Law**: - According to Charles's Law: \[ \frac{V_1}{T_1} = \frac{V_2}{T_2} \] - Rearranging the equation to solve for \( V_2 \): \[ V_2 = V_1 \times \frac{T_2}{T_1} \] 4. **Substitute the Values**: - Now, substitute the known values into the equation: \[ V_2 = 2.5 \, L \times \frac{243 \, K}{297 \, K} \] 5. **Calculate \( V_2 \)**: - Perform the calculation: \[ V_2 = 2.5 \, L \times 0.8185 \approx 2.05 \, L \] ### Final Answer: The final volume \( V_2 \) of the balloon when taken out into the cold is approximately \( 2.05 \, L \). ---
