Answer

Volume of the balloon will decrease to 0.83 L and the air flows from the submerged balloon to the balloon on surface, because Volume if the submerged balloon decreases hence the air is pushed to the balloon on the surface.

Work Step by Step

P1 = 1.0 atm, V1 = 2.5 L, V2 = ?, P2 = 3.0 atm P1V1 = P2V2 1 x 2.5 = 3.0 x V2 V2 = 2.5/ 3.0 = 0.833
