Answer:
The volume of the balloon, if the pressure decreases to 748 torr, will be 45.1 L
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
Volume of the balloon = 44.5 L
Pressure in the balloon = 758 torr
Final pressure = 748 torr
Step 2: Calculate final volume
P1*V1 = P2*V2
⇒ with P1 = the initial pressure = 758 torr
⇒ with V1 = the initial volume = 44.5 L
⇒ with P2 = the final pressure = 748 torr
⇒ with V2 = the final volume = TO BE DETERMINED
V2 = (P1*V1)/P2
V2 = (758 * 44.5) /748
V2 = 45.1 L
The volume of the balloon, if the pressure decreases to 748 torr, will be 45.1 L
