Question

(20%) Problem l: A helium-filled toy balloon has a gauge pressure of 0.21 atm and a volume of 9.5 L. How much greater is the internal energy (in J of the hel um in the balloon than it would be if you released enough air to drop the gauge pressure to zero? Assume the volume of the balloon does not change.

Explanation / Answer

V = 9.5 x 10^-3 m^3

Pi = 1 atm + 0.21 atm = 1.21 atm

Pi = 1.21 x 101325 Pa

Pf = 1 + 0 = 1 atm = 101325 Pa

change in internal energy = 3 n R delta(T) / 2

P V = n R T

delta(P) V = n R delta(T)


delta(U) = (9.5 x 10^-3)(0.21 x 101325) (3/2)

= 303.2 J
