Statement 2 is correct.
solids moving into solution is a physical change as the core structure of the molecules remain the same. evaporation of water and crystallization of salt are both physical changes as well.
The water does not change it's H2O chemical makeup because salt was dissolved into it.
The problem applies Charles' law since constant pressure with varying volume and temperature are given. Assuming ideal gas law, the equation to be used is

=

. We make sure the temperatures are expressed in Kelvin, hence the given added with 273. The volume 2 is equal to 25.2881 liters.
