A 4.0L weather balloon is launched from sea level where the temperature is 25°C. It rises to an altitude where the pressure is 0.05atm and the temperature is -75°C. If the balloon has the capacity to expand to a 50 liter volume before bursting, will the balloon survive?

The balloon will not survive.

Explanation:

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

where,

= initial pressure of gas =  1 atm

= final pressure of gas = 0.05 atm

= initial volume of gas = 4.0 L

= final volume of gas = ?

= initial temperature of gas =

= final temperature of gas =

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

As the balloon has the capacity to expand to a 50 liter volume before bursting, it can not survive as it occupies volume higher than 50 L
