A filled balloon has a volume of 5.6 L at 35 ˚C and it is placed into liquid nitrogen at a temperature of -78 ˚C. What is the new volume of the balloon?

Respuesta :

Answer:

3.54 L

Explanation:

To find the new volume, we'll use this formula: [tex]\frac{V_1}{T_1} = \frac{V_2}{T_2}[/tex]

V₁ = Liters (5.6)

T₁ = Volume in kelvin (273 + 35 = 308)

V₂ = New liters (?)

T₂ = New temperature (273 - 78 = 195)

[tex]\frac{5.6}{308} = \frac{V_2}{195}[/tex]

First, cross multiply

1092 = V₂308

Divide both sides by 308

1092/308 = V₂308/308

V₂ = 3.54
