You’re at the zoo and have a big red 1.80 L helium balloon. The barometric pressure today is 785 mmHg. Then you hear the roar of

a lion. Startled, you accidentally release the balloon. It flies away. By the time it reaches the clouds, the atmospheric pressure that high is only 3.00 atmospheres. What would the volume of the balloon up there? (Temperature is constant)

Answer:

The volume of the balloon up there will be 0.618 L

Explanation:

Given:

V₁ = 1.8 L

P₁ = 785 mmHg = 1.03 atm

P₂ = 3 atm

Question: What would the volume of the balloon up there, V₂ = ?

According the ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

However, in this case, the number of moles of helium balloon is constant. The temperature will also be assumed to be constant. Therefore, the expression of the ideal gases is as follows:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

Solving for V₂

V_{2} =\frac{P_{1}V_{1}  }{P_{2} } =\frac{1.03*1.8}{3} =0.618L

Answer:

0.62 L

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question.

Initial Volume (V1) = 1.80 L

Initial pressure (P1) = 785 mmHg

Final pressure (P2) = 3.00 atm

Final volume (V2) =?

Step 2:

Conversion of the pressure in mmHg to atm.

It is important to express the initial and the final pressure in the same unit. Either express both in atm or in mmHg. What ever the case is, we'll still arrive at same answer. Here, we shall be converting from mmHg to atm. This is illustrated below:

760mmHg = 1atm

Therefore, 785 mmHg = 785/760 = 1.03 atm

Step 3:

Determination of the final volume. This is illustrated below.

We shall be applying the Boyle's law equation since the temperature is constant.

P1V1 = P2V2

Initial Volume (V1) = 1.80 L

Initial pressure (P1) = 1.03 atm

Final pressure (P2) = 3.00 atm

Final volume (V2) =?

P1V1 = P2V2

1.03 x 1.8 = 3 x V2

Divide both side by 3

V2 = (1.03 x 1.8) /3

V2 = 0.62 L

Therefore, the new volume of the balloon is 0.62 L

Why are many fossil remains left from the last ice age
Vaselesa [24]
<span>They follow mostly from pleistocene climate and topography, so are in general less tightly controlled by bedrock than others. Most terrestrial fossil remains are found either in ponds dating from the receding of previous glaciers or isolated teeth or bone fragments in glacial till. Some important faunas, however, are preserved in pleistocene caves.
