A balloon with a volume of 0.5L at 293K is cooled to 20K. What is the balloon's new<br> volume?
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

0.03 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Initial volume of the balloon (V₁): 0.5 L
  • Initial temperature of the balloon (T₁): 293 K
  • Final volume of the balloon (V₂): ?
  • Final temperature of the balloon (T₂): 20 K

Step 2: Calculate the final volume of the balloon

The balloon is filled with air. If we assume it behaves as an ideal gas, we can calculate the final volume of the balloon using Charles' law.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₂ = V₁ × T₂/T₁

V₂ = 0.5 L × 20 K/293 K = 0.03 L

Which statement describes the masses of the particles that make up an atom?
ryzh [129]

<span>An atom is the smallest component of matter that keeps all of the chemical properties of an element. Atoms merge to form molecules, which then connect to form solids, gases, or liquids. Atoms are made up of three basic particles: protons, electrons, and neutrons. Atoms have different properties based on the order and number of their basic particles. Protons and neutrons have accurate mass, about 1.67x10 -24 grams.</span>

50 J of work was done on a system, as a result of which 29 J of heat energy was removed from it. How would this affect the inter
cricket20 [7]
  • Work done=50J
  • Heat removed=29J

Now

\\ \sf\longmapsto \Delta E=50-29

\\ \sf\longmapsto \Delta E=21J

  • Hence the internal energy would increase by 21J

Option B is correct
