The answer is particle accelerators.
Answer:
The 12L helium tank pressurized to 160 atm will fill <em>636 </em>3-liter balloons
Explanation:
It is possible to answer this question using Boyle's law:

Where P₁ is the pressure of the tank (160atm), V₁ is the volume of the tank (12L), P₂ is the pressure of the balloons (1atm, atmospheric pressure) And V₂ is the volume this gas will occupy at 1 atm, thus:
160atm×12L = 1atm×V₂
V₂ = 1920L
As the tank will never be empty, the volume of the gas able to fill balloons is the total volume minus 12L, thus the volume of helium able to fill balloons is:
1920L - 12L = 1908L
1908L will fill:
1908L×
= <em>636 balloons</em>

This problem could be solved through the Graham’s law of
effusion (also known as law of diffusion). This law states that the ratio of
the effusion rate of the first gas and effusion rate of the second gas is
equivalent to the square root of the ratio of its molar mass. Thus the answer
would be 0.1098.
