A weather balloon filled with helium gas has a volume of $300 \mathrm{m}^{3}$ and pressure $1.4 \times 10^{5}$ Pa at the Earth's surface (where the temperature is $293 \mathrm{K}$ ). The balloon is then released and moves to a high altitude, where the pressure in the balloon is 25,000 Pa and the temperature is $250 \mathrm{K}\left(-23^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\right)$. What is the new volume of the balloon?

A weather balloon filled with helium gas has a volume of 300 m^3 and pressure 1.4 x 10^5 Pa at the Earth's surface (where the temperature is 293 K). The balloon is then released and moves to a high altitude, where the pressure in the balloon is 8.95 x 10^4 Pa and the temperature is 250 K (-23°C). What is the new volume of the balloon? A- V = 100 m^3 B- V = 163.7 m^3 C- V = 184 m^3 D- V = 197 m^3 E- V = 400 m^3

A balloon originally at sea level (P = 101.3 kPa) has a volume of 25 m3 and temperature of 15C. The balloon rises to a point where the pressure is half that at sea level and the temperature has dropped by 20 degrees, what is the new volume of the balloon?
