(Reference: Chang 5.33)

A gas-filled balloon having a volume of 2.50 L at 1.2 atm and 25°C is allowed to rise to the stratosphere (about 30 km above the surface of Earth), where the temperature and pressure are –23°C and 3.00 × 10–3 atm, respectively. Calculate the final volume of the balloon. (8 points)

Explanation / Answer

Question 1- A sample of nitrogen gas kept in a container of volume 2.3 L and at a temperature of 32°C exerts a pressure 4.7 atm. Calculate the number of moles of gas present. (8 points)

N2 gas...

V1 = 2.3 L, T = 32°C = 32+273 = 305 K, P = 4.7 atm

caluclate moles

use ideal gas law

PV = nRT

n = PV/(RT)

n = (4.7*2.3)/(0.082*305)

n = 0.43222 moles
