V1 = 2.1L                                    V2 =

P1 = 1.2atm                              P2 = 3*10^-3 atm   = 0.003atm

T1   = 200C = 20 + 273 = 293K                                             T2 = -230C = -23+273   = 250K

                 P1V1/T1    =    P2V2/T2

                    V2           = P1V1T2/T1P2

                                   = 1.2*2.1*250/293*0.003    = 716.72L

final volume of the balloon = 716.72L
