when fully inflated a hot air balloon has a volume of 1.6 *10^5 L ( liter) an average temperature of 373k and 0 967 atm . 1) Ass
Sidana [21]
1.  First, you have to find the number of moles 1.6z10^5L of gas is at 373K and 0.967atm using PV=nRT solving for n. (n=PV/RT).  Everything is in the correct units and we know R is going to be 0.08206atmL/molK since it is a constant.  
n=(0.967atmx160000L)/(0.08206atmL/molKx373K)
n=5054.8mol gas
Then you have to find the the number grams which can be found using the molar mass given as 29g/mol.  multiply 29g/mol by the number of moles of gas we found in the previous step.
5054.8molx29g/mol=146589.9g of gas
Lastly, to find the density of the gas you need to divide the mass of the gas by its volume.
146589.9g/160000L=0.916g/L

2. The dinsity of the gas at STP should be higher than the density of gas with the given conditions.  This is due to the fact that the given conditions involves a higher temperature than that of at STP which will cause the gas to expand therefore increasing the volume with out increasing the mass.  The reason why the pressure is not building up even though the pressure is higher is that the balloon is not sealed meaning the gas can maintain about atmospheric pressure while expanding since the excess are just leaves the balloon.
the answer to part 2 can be proven by the fallowing:
To find the density of the gas at STP you first multiply the molar volume of gas at STP by the number of moles of gas from part 1 to get the volume of the gas at STP.
5054.8molx22.4L/mol=113228L
Then you divide the mass form part by the new volume to get the new density.
<span>146589.9g/113228L=1.30g/L</span>

I hope this helps.  Let me know in the comments if any of it is unclear.

For question #12, use the following picture:<br><br> 12. What element is this? How do you know?
labwork [276]

Answer: The element shown in the image is Helium (He).

Explanation: We are given a image of an atom having protons, neutrons and electrons.

Number of protons as shown in image = 2

Number of neutrons as shown in image = 2

Number of electron as shown in image = 2

Atomic number = Number of protons = Number of electrons

Atomic number of the element = 2

Atomic Mass = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

Atomic mass = 2 + 2 = 4

The element having Atomic number = 2 and mass number = 4 is Helium.

Element = ^4_2\textrm{He}

Balance the following chemical equation:<br> C2H60+02 → CO2 + H20
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

Explain: In order to balance the chemical equation, you need to make sure the number of atoms of each element on the reactant side is equal to the number of atoms of each element on the product side. In order make both sides equal, you will need to multiply the number of atoms in each element until both sides are equal.

How has the Chesapeake Bay watershed changed over time?
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

The Chesapeake Bay watershed continues to develop as population in the region grows. Development and urbanization at the cost of natural landscapes can lead to increased pollution of nutrients and sediment to the Bay, especially from stormwater runoff.
