1. A weather balloon is filled with helium on a cool morning when the temperature is 13.0°C. The temperature is predicted to rea

ch 35.0°C around 4 PM. When first inflated, the balloon has a volume of 12.9 L and is at 238 kPa – these are the standard volume and pressure for this type of weather balloon. Based on the balloon design, it can only withstand pressures up to 252 kPa.
How many moles of helium are in this hot air balloon?
Will the balloon burst when the temperature reaches 35.0 C?

Please someone help, Im mostly stumped by R. I know it is 8.314 L kPa/mole K but i dont know how to calculate that please help

Answer:

Number of moles: n = 1.29 moles

If the temperature reaches 35°C which is 308.15 K the balloon will burst

Explanation:

Using the formula: PV = nRT  

Where P is pressure in atm, V is volume in L, n is the number of moles, R is the gas constant which can be 8.314 J/mol K or 0.08206 atm L/mol K, and T is temperature in K.

In order to know which R to use, just take a look at the units. If you are given the pressure in atm, then use 0.08206 atm L/mol K. If you are given energy in Joules instead, then use 8.314 J/mol K.

Problem solution:

1 atm = 101.325 kPa, so 238 kPa is equal to 2.349 atm

1°C is 274.15 K, so 13°C is 286.15 k

Using the formula PV = nRT

2.349 atm * 12.9 L = n * 0.08206 atm L/mol K * 286.15 k  

n = (30.302 atm L) / (23.481 atm L/mol)

n = 1.29 moles

If the temperature reaches 35°C which is 308.15 K the balloon will burst:

P = nRT/V

P = (1.29 moles * 0.08206 atm L/mol K * 308.15 k) / 12.9 L

P = 2.529 atm = 256.21 kPa

10. A small gold nugget has volume of 0.87 cm3. What is its mass if the density of gold is 19.3 g/cm3?
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

16.791 grams

Explanation:

The density formula is:

d=\frac{m}{v}

Rearrange the formula for m, the mass. Multiply both sides of the equation by v.

d*v=\frac{m}{v}*v

d*v=m

The mass of the gold nugget can be found by multiplying the density and volume. The density is 19.3 grams per cubic centimeter and the volume is 0.87 cubic centimeters.

d= 19.3 g/cm^3\\v-0.87 cm^3

Substitute the values into the formula.

m=d*v

m= 19.3 g/cm^3*0.87 cm^3

Multiply. Note that the cubic centimeters, or cm³ will cancel each other out.

m=19.3 g*0.87

m=16.791 g

The mass of the gold nugget is 16.791 grams.

If a sample of sodium chloride with a mass of
alex41 [277]
Original molarity was 1.7 moles of NaCl

Final molarity was 0.36 moles of NaCl

Given Information:

Original (concentrated) solution: 25 g NaCl in a 250 mL solution, solve for molarity

Final (diluted) solution: More water is added to make the new total volume 1.2 liters, solve for the new molarity

1. Solve for the molarity of the original (concentrated) solution.

Molarity (M) = moles of solute (mol) / liters of solution (L)

Convert the given information to the appropriate units before plugging in and solving for molarity.

Molarity (M) = 0.43 mol NaCl solute / 0.250 L solution = 1.7 M NaCl (original solution)

2. Solve for the molarity of the final (diluted) solution.

Remember that the amount of solute remains constant in a dilution problem; it is just the total volume of the solution that changes due to the addition of solvent.

Molarity (M) = 0.43 mol NaCl solute / 1.2 L solution

Molarity (M) of the final solution = 0.36 M NaCl

I hope this helped:))
