Solution :

Volume of balloon
\sf (V_1 ) = 6.7 L

Temperature
\sf (T_1 )= 20 celsius (converting into kelvin) = 20 + 273 = 293 K

Now,


\sf (T_2 ) = 350 celsius

= 350 + 273 = 623 K

Since pressure is constant.

According to Charles law, At constant pressure the volume of the gas is directly proportional to temperature.


\: \: { \boxed{ \sf{ \pink{(V_1)/(V_2) = (T_1)/(T_2)}}}}

We have to find
\sf (V_2 )

On putting the values in above formula,,


\sf (6.7)/(V_2) = (293)/(623) \\ \\ \sf V_2 = (6.7 * 623)/(293) \\ \\ \sf V_2 = (4174.1)/(293) \\ \\ \sf V_2 = 14.24

Therefore, Volume of the balloon will be 14.24 L at 350 celsius.
