A weather balloon is inflated to a volume of 27.3 L at a pressure of 738 mmHg and a temperature of 26.9 ∘C. The balloon rises in

the atmosphere to an altitude where the pressure is 375 mmHg and the temperature is -15.6 ∘C.
Assuming the balloon can freely expand, calculate the volume of the balloon at this altitude.

Answer:

The new volume of the balloon is 46.1 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Initial volume of the balloon = 27.3 L

Initial pressure in the balloon = 738 mmHg = 0.97105 atm

Initial temperature in the balloon = 26.9 °C = 300.05 K

The pressure decreases to 375 mmHg = 0.493421 atm

The temperature lowers to -15.6 °C = 257.55 K

Step 2: Calculate the volume

P1*V1 / T1 = P2 *V2 / T2

⇒with P1 = the Initial pressure = 738 mmHg = 0.97105 atm

⇒with V1 = Initial volume of the balloon = 27.3 L

⇒with T1 = Initial temperature in the balloon = 26.9 °C = 300.05 K

⇒with P2 = the decreased pressure = 0.493421 atm

⇒with V2 = the new volume = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with T2 = the lowered temperature = 257.55 K

0.97105 * 27.3 / 300.05 = 0.493421*V2 / 257.55

V2 = 46.1 L

The new volume of the balloon is 46.1 L

Capsaicin, the compound that gives the hot taste to chili peppers, has the formula C18H27NO3. Its molar mass is 305.42 g/mol. Ca
stellarik [79]
Molar mass = 305.42 g/mol

C = ( 12 x 18 / 305.42 ) x 100 => 70.72 % of C

H = ( 1 x 27 / 305.42 ) x 100 => 8.84 % of H

N = ( 14 x 1 / 305.42 ) x 100 => 4.58 % of N

O = ( 16 x 3 / 305.42) x 100 => 15.71% of O

hope this helps!

An interpenetrating primitive cubic structure like that of CsCl with anions in the corners has an edge length of 664 pm. If the
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

the ionic radius of the anion r^- = 312.52 \ pm

Explanation:

From the diagram shown below :

The anion Cl^- is located at the corners

The cation Cs^+ is located at the body center

The Body diagonal length =  \sqrt{3 \ a }

∴ 2 \ r^+ \ + 2r^- \ = \sqrt{3 \ a}  \\ \\ r^+ +r^- = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} a

Given that :

\frac{r^+}{r^-} =0.84   (i.e the  ratio of the ionic radius of the cation to the ionic radius of

                 the anion )

0.84r^- \ + r^- \ = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}a  \\ \\  1.84 r^- = \frac{3}{2}a \\ \\ r^- = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2*1.84}a

Also ; a =  664 pm

Then :

r^- = \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2*1.84}*664 \ pm\\ \\ r^- = 312.52 \ pm

Therefore,  the ionic radius of the anion r^- = 312.52 \ pm
