The final volume of the balloon is 84.75 ml

calculation

The volume is calculated using Charles law formula

that is V1/T1 = V2/T2 where,

V1 = 5.00 x10^2 ml

T1 = 22.0 °c into kelvin = 22 + 273 = 295 K

V2=? ml

T2 = 0.500 x 10^2 K

make V2 the subject of the formula by multiplying both side by T2

V2 is therefore = T2V1/T1

V2 = (0.500 x 10^2 K x 5.00 x10^2 ml) / 295 K = 84.75 ml
