Using the ideal gas law,

<em>PV</em> = <em>nRT</em>

where <em>R</em> = 0.08206 L•atm/(mol•°K), solving for <em>n</em> gives

<em>n</em> = <em>PV</em>/(<em>RT</em>)

<em>n</em> = (845 mmHg) (270 L) / ((0.08206 L•atm/(mol•°K)) (24 °C))

Convert the given temperature to °K and the given pressure to atm:

24 °C = (273.15 + 24) °K ≈ 297.2 °K

(845 mmHg) × (1/760 atm/mmHg) ≈ 1.11 atm

Then the balloon contains

<em>n</em> = (1.11 atm) (270 L) / ((0.08206 L•atm/(mol•°K)) (297.2 °K))

<em>n</em> ≈ 12.3 mol

of He.

Solve the same equation for <em>V</em> :

<em>V</em> = <em>nRT</em>/<em>P</em>

<em />

Convert the target temperature to °K:

-50 °C = (273.15 - 50) °K = 223.15 °K

Then the volume under the new set of conditions is

<em>V</em> = (12.3 mol) (0.08206 L•atm/(mol•°K)) (223.15 °K) / (0.735 atm)

<em>V</em> ≈ 306 L

How are intermolecular forces of attraction, vapor pressure, and boiling point related?
monitta

Answer:

Intermolecular forces (IMFs) can be used to predict relative boiling points. The stronger the IMFs, the lower the vapor pressure of the substance and the higher the boiling point. Therefore, we can compare the relative strengths of the IMFs of the compounds to predict their relative boiling points.
