Question

A scientist collects 0.24 mole of hydrogen gas in a balloon. The temperature of the hydrogen is 35°C, and the pressure in the balloon is 1.05 atmospheres. What is the volume of the balloon?
The Volume of the ballon is ____ liters.

Answer 1

Answer:

24.082 liters

Explanation:

You can solve this question using ideal gas formula. There are a few factors that will determine the volume(V) of gas, the number of the gas molecules (n), pressure(P), and temperature(T). You also need coefficient (R) which will depend on the unit used in pressure. We will use R= 0,08206 L atm K-1 mol-1 here. Don't forget to change the Celcius temperature into Kelvin.

PV=nRT

V= nRT/P

V = 0.08206 L atm/Kmol * (35+273.15) K /1.05 atm

V= 24.082 L
