To calculate the final volume of the balloon when heated, we need to apply the ideal gas law formula. The ideal gas law states that PV = nRT, where P is pressure, V is volume, n is the number of moles, R is the ideal gas constant, and T is the temperature in Kelvin.

However, we need to convert the temperatures from Celsius to Kelvin before using the formula. The Kelvin temperature scale starts at absolute zero, so we add 273 to the Celsius temperature.

Given:
Initial volume (V1) = 5 L
Initial temperature (T1) = 250 °C
Final temperature (T2) = 500 °C

Converting temperatures to Kelvin:
T1 = 250 °C + 273 = 523 K
T2 = 500 °C + 273 = 773 K

Assuming the pressure and the number of moles of gas remain constant, we can rewrite the equation as:

(V1/T1) = (V2/T2), where V2 is the final volume that we want to find.

Rearranging the equation, we get:
V2 = (V1 * T2) / T1

Now we can plug in the values and calculate the final volume:

V2 = (5 L * 773 K) / 523 K
V2 = 7.47 L (rounded to two decimal places)

Therefore, when you heat a 5 L balloon from a temperature of 250 °C to 500 °C, its final volume will be approximately 7.47 L.
