A gas-filled balloon having a volume of 3.60 L at 1.15 atm and 20°C is allowed to rise to the stratosphere (about 30 km above th

e surface of the Earth), where the temperature and pressure are −50°C and 5.40 × 10−3 atm, respectively. Calculate the final volume of the balloon.

<u>Answer:</u> The new volume of the balloon will be 583.5 L

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the volume when temperature and pressure has changed, we use the equation given by combined gas law.

The equation follows:

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1,V_1\text{ and }T_1 are the initial pressure, volume and temperature of the gas

P_2,V_2\text{ and }T_2 are the final pressure, volume and temperature of the gas

We are given:

P_1=1.15atm\\V_1=3.60L\\T_1=20^oC=[20+273]K=293K\\P_2=5.40\times 10^{-3}atm=0.00540atm\\V_2=?\\T_2=-50^oC=[-50+273]K=223K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{1.15atm\times 3.60L}{293K}=\frac{0.00540atm\times V_2}{223K}\\\\V_2=\frac{1.15\times 3.60\times 223}{293\times 0.00540}=583.5L

Hence, the new volume of the balloon will be 583.5 L

The molar heat of fusion of platinum (Pt) is 4.700 kcal/mol. How much heat must be added to 85.5 g of solid platinum at its melt
Andre45 [30]
The heat required to completely melt the given substance, platinum, we just have to convert first the given mass in mole and multiply the answer to its molar heat of fusion.. 
                              Hf  = mass x (1/molar mass) x molar heat of fusion
                            Hf = (85.5 g) x (1 mole/195.08 g) x 4.70 kcal/mol
                                   Hf = 2.06 kcal

Why is it important to control the reaction rate of the chemical process
xxTIMURxx [149]
Mg+2HCl=MgCl_2+H_{2(g)}

The reaction creates dihydrogen, hence if it's uncontrolled it could lead to potentially dangerous amounts of gas being released at once.
