Answer:

V₂ = 1.5 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume of balloon = 1.76 L

Initial temperature = 295 K

Final temperature = 253.15 K

Final volume = ?

Solution:

According to this law, The volume of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant number of moles and pressure.

Mathematical expression:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₁ = Initial volume

T₁ = Initial temperature

V₂ = Final volume  

T₂ = Final temperature

Now we will put the values in formula.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₂ = V₁T₂/T₁  

V₂ = 1.76 L ×253.15 K / 295 K

V₂ = 445.54 L.K /295 K

V₂ = 1.5 L
