In 1783, Jacques Charles launched his first balloon filled with hydrogen gas, which he chose because it was lighter than air. The balloon had a volume of 31 000 L when it was filled at a pressure of 755 mmHg and a temperature of 22 °C. When the balloon reached an altitude of 1000 m, the pressure was 658 mmHg and the temperature was -8 °C. What is the volume of the balloon at these conditions, if the amount of hydrogen remains the same?
