Answer: 400K
Explanation:
Given that,
Original volume of balloon V1 = 3.0L
Original temperature of balloonT1 = 27°C
Convert the temperature in Celsius to Kelvin
(27°C + 273 = 300K)
New volume of balloon V2 = 4.0L
New temperature of balloon T2 = ?
Since volume and temperature are given while pressure is constant, apply the formula for Charle's law
V1/T1 = V2/T2
3.0L/300K = 4.0L/T2
To get the value of T2, cross multiply
3.0L x T2 = 4.0L x 300K
3.0LT2 = 1200LK
Divide both sides by 3.0L
3.0LT2/3.0L = 1200LK/3.0L
T2 = 400K
Thus, at a temperature of 400 Kelvin, the balloon would have a volume of 4.0L.
