A balloon is inflated to 2.50 L with nitrous oxide gas, N20, at a particular initial temperature and pressure, and tied-off. Assume that the temperatures and pressures referred to are always those prevailing inside the balloon. To what volume will the balloon contract or expand when: The pressure is reduced to one-half the initial value and the Kelvin temperature is reduced to one third of the initial value?
