Astudent decreases the temperature of a 556 cm balloon from 278 k to 231 k. assuming constant pressure, what should be the new volume of the balloon be? a. 417 cm
b 462 cm
c. 924 cm
d. 376 cm

The problem gives two temperature and a constant pressure and asks for the resulting volume. The problem is an application of Charles' law. Assuming ideal gas law equation is also applicable, =. Substituting volume 1 equals 556 cm3, T1=278 K and T2=231 K, then volume 2 is 462 cm3. Hence, the answer is B.
