Question

Why is it dangerous to store compressed gas cylinders in Places that could become very hot? A balloon filled to its maximum capacity on a chilly night at a carnival pops without being touched when it is brought inside. Explain this event. H. gas bubble forms inside a vat containing a hot liquid. Af the bubble is originally at 68 degree C and a pressure of 1.6 atm with a volume of 5.8 mL, what will its volume be if the pressure drops to 1.2 atm and the temperature drops to 31 degree C? A bicycle tire is inflated to a pressure of 3.74 atm at 15 degree C. If the tire is heated to 35 degree C, what is the pressure in the tire? Assume the tire volume doesn't change. A balloon filled with helium has a volume of 1.28 X 10^3 L at sea level where the pressure is 0.998 atm and the temperature is 31 degree C. The balloon is taken to the top of a mountain where the pressure is 0.753 atm and the temperature is -25 degree C. What

Explanation / Answer

T1 = 68 + 273 = 341 K

P1 = 1.6 atm

V1 = 5.8 mL

P2 = 1.2 atm

T2 = 31 + 273 = 304 K

V2 = ?

P1 V1 / T1 = P2 V2 / T2

1.6 x 5.8 / 341 = 1.2 x V2 / 304

V2 = 6.9 mL

volume of the gas = 6.9 mL
