Answer:

1.9 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Initial number of moles of air (n₁): 4.0 mol
  • Initial volume of the balloon (V₁): 2.5 L
  • Final number of moles of air (n₂): 3.0 mol
  • Final volume of the balloon (V₂): ?

Step 2: Calculate the final volume of the balloon

According to Avogadro's law, the volume of an ideal gas is directly proportional to the number of moles. We can calculate the final volume of the balloon using the following expression.

V₁ / n₁ = V₂ / n₂

V₂ = V₁ × n₂ / n₁

V₂ = 2.5 L × 3.0 mol / 4.0 mol

V₂ = 1.9 L

In what way would readings from a digital thermometer be preferable to those from a liquid-based thermometer
charle [14.2K]
A digital thermometer has less errors in reading temperatures because it displays the actual reading rather than approximating it in a liquid-based thermometer. Also, digital thermometer are advantageous to use in extreme temperature conditions because they can withstand in these type of conditions.

<span>While driving your rental car on your trip to Europe, you find that you are getting 9.7 kilometers per liter of gasoline. We know that 1 mile is equal to 1.609 kilometers. So divide 9.7 kilometers by 1.609 kilometrs/mile and you will get 6.03 miles per gasoline</span>
