Using Charles Law, the answer is about 8.33kL

Explanation:

Charles law states that #V/T = V/T#

The first status of the baloon is where the baloon has a volume of 10 kL, and 25 C, or 298 Kelvin

The second condition only gives temperature, -25 C, i presume, or 248 Kelvin.

Using Charles Law, we can determine

#(10kL)/(298K) = (x kL )/ (248K) #

Simply solve for #x#
