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

What enables Dna to have so many variations with only 4 chemicals?
elena-s [515]
There are many combinations because it is not all about the number of chemicals, but also about the size of the strand. The longer the strand the more combinations there are and more variations and various lengths provide various results.

How many moles of HCl are present in 4.7 L of a 4.23 M HCl solution?
REY [17]

Hey There!

Volume = 4.7 L

Molarity = 4.23 M

Therefore:

n = M *V

n = 4.23 * 4.7

n = 19.881 moles of HCl

hope this helps!

Which type of equilibrium exists in a sealed flask containing Br2(ℓ) and Br2(g) at 298 K and 1.0 atm?(1) static phase equilibriu
marishachu [46]
The correct answer is 3.

A dynamic phase equilibrium is when a reversible reaction no longer changes its ratio of reactants to products. However, substances continue to move between the chemicals at an equal rate, which means the net change is 0. This is known as a steady state.
