    Supposing STP to be 1 atm and 0°C:

    (0.603 mol) x (22.414 L/mol) / (1.50 L / balloon) = 9 balloons

    PV=nRT <<<memorize!!

    n is moles, R is gas constant (use correct one!), T is temp in K (C+273.15)

    Since you have a before and after with the same n &R simplifies to

    PV/T initial = nR = PV/T final

    Now sub in your numbers and solve

    SI Units R values:

    8.31446261815324 J⋅K−1⋅mol−1

    8.31446261815324 m3⋅Pa⋅K−1⋅mol−1

    8.31446261815324 kg⋅m2·K−1⋅mol−1s−2

    8.31446261815324×103 L⋅Pa⋅K−1⋅mol−1

    8.31446261815324×10−2 L⋅bar⋅K−1⋅mol−1

    0.082057 L atm mol-1K-1

    62.36L·torr/mol·K = L·mmHg/mol·K

    US Customary Units R values:

    0.730240507295273 atm⋅ft3⋅lbmol-1°R-1

    10.731557089016 psi⋅ft3⋅lbmol-1°R-1

    1.985875279009 BTU⋅lbmol-1°Rv-1
